Mothers are on the front lines when it comes to teaching our kids and raising them up in the way they should go.
Being a mother is often a thankless task, one with late nights and early mornings, endless laundry, cleaning and cooking, and caring for sick kids.
The older I get the more I understand just how much my own mother did for us when we were growing up. She could have had a good career with her dedication in her job before in Administrative skills she have, but she chose to be a stay at home mother with us.
For many moms they do all this while working a full time job. Oh it's hard, "been there done that" scenario, I can’t even imagine myself (again) in a 9 to 12hrs full time job aside in the house chores you needed to do.
God calls on a wife and mother to be a woman of strength, courage and wisdom.
She should rely on God through thick and thin, and lead her children to a knowledge of His saving grace.
God,
❇️ Psalm 16:8 I have set the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Most mothers work hard and manage to do just fine with little help. Invariably, however, there will be times when they’re feeling overwhelmed. In those hard times it’s so important to look to God for encouragement, strength and support.
💠1 Peter 3:4 But let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.
The Most Perfect Parent
While our moms can be a good example of God’s love for us, they are an imperfect vessel. They will fail from time to time.
Only God shows us what perfect parental love is. He gives us a love that is caring and compassionate, patient, forgiving and full of grace.
Even if you don’t have a relationship with your earthly mother, you can have a relationship with the ultimate parent, God.
God loves you, and wants to have a relationship with you. He’ll be the most loving and caring parent you could hope for.
