Queen Bee

Today is Mother’s Day, the day we celebrate mothers for their sacrifice, love, caring, and devotion to their children and families. So while thinking about Mother’s Day, I reflect on one of the hardest working and busiest mothers….The Queen Bee.

The Queen Bee is bred by the hive to serve as mother for all future workers and in most cases the next queen.

The queen is cared for by a group of close bees. They feed her, care for her, dispose of her waste, and go wherever the queen moves to, which is how the hive functions. The worker bees love and care for their mother and the mother provides for the current and next generation so necessary work can be done.

Moms do the same. They provide and care for their family and prepare everything so that future generations can exist and prosper. They teach their children and bestow values that carry into the next generations.

So on this Mother’s Day, thank your mom for all that she does and has done. Tell her that you love her and show her that she did a great job by your daily actions, how you love others, and how you care for others. Mothers, next to Christ, are the greatest gift from God.

The Queen Bee without her, we would all become extinct. Without her, other bees exist to pollinate plants and trees, which in turn provide oxygen and food for us.

So love the Queen Bee. Care for her, protect her, and be devoted to her.

To all of the mothers today….HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY and Thank you from Welcome 2 Serenity.
