Mothers

The first time the word mother appears in the bible is Genesis 2:24, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” A mother by basic definition is the woman that gives birth to a child. God made man and woman for the purpose of having a family and teaching the children concerning spiritual and material facts of life. A child that has a loving mother has been taught manners, respect, honor, love, how to make decisions and other vital issues in life as the grow into adulthood. This mother is of greater value than we will ever imagine. The family is at the center of any church. You cannot have a church without the family. The family is the first institution that God created. God has by design made motherhood a very import part of life. Mothers can teach children in many areas of growth better than men. A mother that takes her children to church, reads the bible with them and prays with them will experience great joy in the Lord. Every day should be Mother’s Day. They are very special in the eyes of God and should be respected by everyone. If your mother is still alive when is the last time you said to her, “Mother I love you?”
