Is it still Mother's Day for mom?

Friday - 5/18 - Read Proverbs 6:20-23 again.

How have you bound your mother's teachings upon your heart and fastened them around your neck?

What do you think Solomon meant when he wrote these words in Proverbs 6:21?

In verse 22 Solomon said mom's teaching will do three things. What are they? How would you apply them in your life today?

In verse 23 Solomon compares dad's commands and mom's teaching as a lamp and light. Why is is this so important?

At what point in your life do they stop being a lamp and a light?

In verse 23 Solomon talks about the "corrections of discipline." Do you remember a time when you were disciplined by your mom and hated it (maybe this morning)? What does Solomon say about the "corrections of discipline?" They are the "way to _______! (fill in the blank)" Do you believe this?

Is there a need for some tweaking in the ingredients your using right now in how you react to mom in your life (the way you're baking the cake)?

We sent you home with a cake mix to bake a cake for mom last Sunday. Did you bake it? Did you use the right ingredients? Did you clean up after you baked the cake? Let that cake remind you of the ingredients of submission, obedience, respect, honor, care and concern you need to use every day in your relationship with your mom.
