Proverbs 31:28 tells us that “Her children rise up and call her blessed. Of course, that verse is speaking of a mother. God has given mothers and fathers the awesome responsibility to care for and raise one of the greatest blessings, His children.

 

One mother described the position of motherhood in this way: “We joyfully serve because we are serving Him! We wipe noses with our own shirts, we kiss owies over and over again, we do laundry while making dinner and paying bills, and then we do it over again. But oh, what we gain! The knowledge that we walk each day with our Lord and Savior and the privilege of watching a young man or woman grow and be able to train them in the way they should go. How could we possibly desire anything more?”

 

There was no greater love ever displayed than what was displayed in Jesus Christ. There is no other love like His because we know that He is love. There is no love that truly compares with His, but I believe that if there is an example we can look to in this world it would have to be that of a mother’s love. God bless our mothers!
