Be encouraged today, dear mother. You are doing a GOOD WORK. The Bible tells us that mothering, homemaking, loving your husband, hospitality, and reaching out to the needy are GOOD works (Proverbs 31:10-31; Acts 9:36-42; 1 Timothy 5:10; and Titus 2:3-5). Some translations call them “BEAUTIFUL things.”
Don’t worry that you can’t have everything perfect. People don’t expect that. The most important thing is to make people feel welcomed, loved, and accepted.
“A woman can do most things a man can do. A man can do many things a woman can do. But some things only a woman can do. A man cannot become pregnant, form life in a womb, give birth to a new human being and nurture the soul of that human being. It takes a woman to be a mother. Her gaze, her touch, her eyes, the nurture of her breast are uniquely and powerfully female.”
A testimony from Anastassija.
Extend your prayers to not only your children but future grandchildren and coming generations. Your prayers can affect the generations to come.
Wow! It’s hard to believe the change! I think that because God made us beautiful that our clothing should be beautiful. The more we act, dress, and speak femininely the more we glorify God who created us female. Those who have been created female by God’s eternal design should live totally female and dress femininely!
Where is your mind today? Dwelling in the past? Or even in the present as you mull over the difficulties you face? To dwell in the past or the present can be depressing unless you are doing it with joy and thankfulness.
When Jesus came into a village between Galilee and Samaria he met ten men with leprosy. They stood at a distance, as all lepers had to do, and cried out to Jesus to have mercy on them. Of course, Jesus responded with mercy and compassion and said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were healed!
God wants your home to be a sanctuary for Him in this world, a place of security, stability, and salvation for your whole household.
Because God created you a woman, be a woman. Act, speak, dress, and nurture like a woman. In doing so, you will fulfill your destiny. How sad to live your life and not live as God intended you you live.
What kind of children are you raising? What kind of laborers does God want us to faithfully prepare for His service? The following is what I long for our children, grandchildren, and future generations. Wow, we certainly have a full-time career, don’t we? We will never have a moment to be bored!
(A testimony from Joyce Graves, Tennessee).
Keep being faithful, dear mother!
Amos 3:3 asks the question: “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” I have always thought of this in the context of two people, specifically a married couple. However, it is really in the context of God and me. Can God walk with me if I don’t agree with what He says in His Word? That’s not going to work very well, is it?
The apostle John loved to call his readers his “little children.” The Greek word is “teknion” which means “a little child.” It is also used of a tender term for a "teacher towards his disciples.” He calls them “little children” seven times in this book.
Hope you have enjoyed a wonderful Mother’s Day!
Dear mother, never forget that you are in the most influential career in the nation. Your children will be the next generation! Be encouraged in your great work!
Such a beautiful thing. But to be loved we must first love. The more we speak love, show love, and give love to our spouse, the more it boomerangs back upon us. Just like we love God because He first loved us.
“When God lays a new-born babe in the arms of a mother, he says to her heart, "Take this child and nurse it for me and I will give you your wages." The answer of maternal love should be, ‘Oh God, you have put your noblest workmanship into my hands. I accept the precious trust. I will shelter this young life under your mercy-seat. I will be truthful that it may never learn falsehood. I will nurse this soul in its infancy with the sincere milk of love, that in after years it may bear strong meat for strong service of God and righteousness.AboveRubies
