Mother Love : The Strong Tie That Holds the Family Together
by Jennifer Workman
“ A MOTHER IS MORE PRECIOUS THAN ALL THE FINEST OF JEWELS AND WORTHY OF OUR CONTINUAL ADMIRATION .”
“
Wow
,” where do I begin to exemplify all of the great mothers that have left an indelible impression on this earth . I will begin with the “ mothers of all mothers ,” Eve . Although Eve ’ s life was categorized by disobedience to the clear directive of God and partaking of the “ forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden ( Genesis 3:6 , NLT ),” she is the “ mother of all creation ” and from her proceedeth all people of every creed , nationality and ethnicity . Although the bible doesn ’ t go into specific detail about her “ motherly ways ,” I believe that as all mothers try to be every day , she was a good mother , nurturer and took care of her children the best way that she could and what was deemed appropriate at that time ! As God gave her a wonderful opportunity to be a mother , likewise , he has given to all of us that have transitioned into motherhood . Having stated such , I will try to highlight women that I believe are great examples of “ mother love ” and hope this article will inspire us to be great mothers , sisters , friends and people as a whole in all areas of our lives . 1 . Pastor ’ s Wives : Although more often than not , the attention is reflected upon the pastor and all that he does in his faithful service to the Lord and the church community as a whole , not much attention is focused on the “ backbone ” of the family and that is his wife .
