There’s a reason we say; “as busy as a bee”. These wonderful little creatures are always on the go, collecting nectar and pollen to bring back to the hive. In the process as they fly from flower to flower they make it possible for fruit trees and hundreds of other plants to pollinate. It is estimated that one third of the human food supply depends on insect pollination, most of which is accomplished by the humble honey bee. This Sunday is “Mother’s Day” and mothers and the honey bee have a lot in common. Mothers are always busy and when I was growing up, our family was one hundred percent dependent on mom for our food supply. But my mom did much more than just feed us and cloth us. Through her unconditional love, her strong unwavering faith in God and in us, she pollinated so many good things, so many God things into our lives how could we not bloom no matter what circumstance of life we found ourselves in. Thanks, Mom! I think God created motherhood so we could get a glimpse of how great God’s love is for us.
