Original Mothers Day Proclamation
Original Mothers Day Proclamation
Julia Ward Howe: 1870
Arise then, women of this day!
Arise all women who have hearts, whether your baptism be of water or of tears!
Say firmly:
'We will not have questions decided by irrelevant agencies.
'We will not have questions decided by irrelevant agencies.
'Our husbands shall not come to us reeking of carnage for caresses and applause.
'Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy, and patience.
'We women of one country will be too tender to those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs.
'From the bosom of a devastated Earth a voice goes up with our own, it says "Disarm! Disarm!"
'The sword of murder is not the balance of justice.
'Blood does not wipe out dishonor, nor violence indicate possession.'
As men have forsaken the plow and the anvil at the summons of war, let women now leave all that may be left of home for a great and earnest day of counsel.
Let them meet first as women, to bewail and commemorate the dead.
Let them solemnly take counsel with each other as to the means whereby the great human family can live in peace, each bearing after his time the sacred impress not of Caesar, but of God.
In the name of womanhood and humanity, I earnestly ask that a general congress of women without limit of nationality be appointed and held at some place deemed most convenient and at the earliest period consistent with its objects, to promote the alliance of the different nationalities, the amicable settlement of international questions, the great and general interests of peace.

Resources Limited Earth
Friendship with God
Read Psalm 139:1-18
How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! I try to count them — they are more than the sand.

Everything Belongs to God
Genesis 2:4-15
The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, the world, and those who live in it.
-Psalm 24:1 (NRSV)
(below from http://upperroom.org/)
I live in a country where the standard of living is high. But our lifestyle has far-reaching effects. If everyone used as many of Earth's resources per person as we do in Denmark, we would need about two extra planets the size of this one to sustain the world's population.
God created the world and saw that it was good. God gave humans the responsibility of being stewards of creation. But we use nature as if it were an infinite resource. We treat creation as if we own it and can use it as we please.
We do not own Earth. God does. Just as children are a gift and a responsibility for their parents, God's gift of planet Earth comes with responsibility for its care. God's creation sustains our existence, providing land, water, and the air that keeps us alive.
When I make decisions -- choices about food, clothing, transportation -- I try to remember that the earth belongs to God. I am part of God's creation, and God's creation keeps me alive. Creation is God's way of taking care of us.

Thank you, God, for creating the world and all that is in it: friends, family, fish, spiders, swallows, wheat, water, and oxygen. Forgive us when we abuse your good gifts. Help us to make responsible choices that help other people and honor your creation. Amen.
