For renowned gospel singer Moses Bliss, his latest celebration was not a concert or an award show—but something far more personal and emotional. The artist recently organised a birthday celebration for his mother, marking the first time in her life that she had ever been honoured in such a way.

The heartfelt event, which Bliss said left him in tears, stemmed from a deeply moving family reality: his mother’s exact birth date had never been known. Determined to change that, he decided to choose a special day to celebrate her, symbolically creating a new beginning.

“Today, I cried. For the first time in my mother’s entire life, we celebrated her birthday,” Bliss wrote. “All these years, we never knew the exact day she was born, so I decided to fix a day just to honour her. And it meant the world to me.”

In his social media post, Bliss paid tribute to his mother’s lifetime of selflessness, describing how she had always prioritised caring for others and never herself. He revealed that her quiet admission—that she had forgotten what it meant to celebrate a birthday—deeply moved him.

“She said, ‘I had never thought about birthdays and I totally forgot about celebrating birthdays.’ Hearing that broke me,” Bliss shared. “This woman has spent her whole life pouring into others, never once pausing to be celebrated herself.”

The singer described the moment she finally received love and recognition as one of the most emotional experiences of his life. Watching her smile, he said, filled him with gratitude and a renewed sense of purpose.

“Seeing her smile, watching her receive love and honour, it was one of the most emotional moments of my life. I cried because she deserves the world,” he wrote.

Expressing profound appreciation, Bliss called his mother a gift from God and thanked her for her faith, sacrifices, and enduring love.

“Happy birthday, Mummy. Thank you for your sacrifices, your faith, and your love that never fades. You are my gift from God, and today we made history together,” he concluded.

The touching gesture has since resonated deeply with fans and followers, who praised Bliss for his heartfelt tribute and for shining a light on the quiet, often overlooked sacrifices of mothers everywhere.
