“I will comfort you there in Jerusalem as a mother comforts her child.” ~ Isaiah 66:13
When broken and distraught, there is nothing like the comfort of your mother. A mother’s embrace can comfort any broken heart or crushed spirit, so much so that when explaining how God would comfort His people, He compared it to the comfort of a mother. In other words, God was saying that a mother’s embrace is second only to our Heavenly Father. It’s built inside of each and every one of us to run to our mother for comfort. When she isn’t there, we can run to our Heavenly Father, and He will hold us and ease the emptiness that the lack of her presence brings.
So, this Mother’s Day, let us take the time to thank our mothers for always comforting and loving us. For the tears they wipe away, and the hugs and kisses they give. As well as to honor our mothers who have passed on. Happy Mother’s Day and thank you mothers everywhere.
