The Gift of Mothers

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Mary – discreet, humble and faithful
Loved and served God
Favored by God
Carried Jesus in her womb

Jochebed – discreet and nurturing
Hid Moses, put him in the River
Raised Aaron and Miriam
Used by God to raise three national leaders in Israel

Hannah – trusted in God
Prayed and vowed
Redeemed her vow
And blessed Israel with Prophet Samuel

King Lemuel’s mother,
An exceptional mother
Godly view and understanding of kingship
Instructed her son
To rule in the fear of God and be a blessing to humanity

How about Lois, the grandmother of Timothy
Generational transfer of the gospel to
Eunice, the mother of Timothy
And the mother of John Mark
Gave up her home and time
For prayers for the Church
Peter was spared untimely death
John Mark served with the Apostle Paul

And YOU
Do you know God?
Love Him, believe Him and trust Him?
So that your child is a blessing to humanity?
Happy Mother’s day.
