More than a Mother 

The following is an incident as told by a bishop. He said, “After my marriage, I was appointed to serve God in a church in the village. The villagers were very poor people and I also did not have much money to meet my daily needs. Easter was fast approaching and that being our first together as a couple, I decided to give my wife a gift. Unfortunately, I had no money but only a blank cheque. My wife on the other hand was thinking, ‘Lord! This being the first Easter as a couple, I do not even have enough money to cook good food for him.’ We sought the Lord diligently in our personal prayers separately. The following day, I received a belated marriage gift from a friend of mine who was unable to attend the wedding. It was a money order for twenty rupees (a huge amount many years ago).” 

Truly, God is very faithful in meeting our needs because He is more than a Mother to us. The heart of a mother is one that wants her children to be safe, comfortable and blessed with all goodness. It is this virtue of a compassionate mother, that made God send His own Son as a sacrifice on the cross of Calvary. Trust Him and He will carry you through in all areas of your life. God will take care of you and lead you; therefore, you can totally trust Him for anything and everything. 

Prayer

“Loving Lord, I thank You from the bottom of my heart for being more than a mother to me. You are aware of all my needs even before I utter them. Please supply all my needs according to Your riches in glory. Prosper all my efforts this day and make me glad. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.” 

‘Jesus says, My child! I will comfort you like a mother’
