“…I have loved you with an everlasting love…” – Jeremiah 31:3 (NIV)
God’s love is timeless and unwavering. As mothers, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, but remember that His love surrounds you endlessly. Rest assured that you are cherished beyond measure, enabling you to love others deeply.
God promised never to leave mothers; this is the assurance of His constant Presence. Scripture says: “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God…”— Romans 8:38-39 (NIV).
No matter the circumstances, God’s love is constant in our lives. Mothers may face many challenges, but this promise reminds us that His love remains strong. Embrace His presence, knowing you are never alone in your journey.
God’s perfect love drives out fear. 1 John 4:18 (NIV) says, “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.”
Motherhood can bring about fears and uncertainties, but God’s perfect love casts out that fear. Reflect on His love that empowers you to face the unknown with courage and faith. Embrace love, and let it fill you with peace.
Psalm 46 also states that, ‘God is our refuge in times of trouble,’ while Psalm 34:18 (NIV) reminds, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
In times of distress or heartache, God’s love serves as a refuge. As mothers, you may experience seasons of sorrow, but know that God is intimately close to you. Turn to Him in your brokenness, and let His love restore your spirit.
God’s tender care for mothers is similar to her tender care for her children. God says, “As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.”— Isaiah 66:13 (NIV).
Yes, God extends His tender care to you. Seek His embrace during times of need. Embrace His promise. Allow His love to nurture and heal your heart so you can share that love with others.
Prayer
Thank You, God, for Your steadfast, comforting, and empowering love for mothers and women. Your everlasting love surrounds us with kindness, even in overwhelming times. Thank You for Your constant presence, assuring that nothing can separate us from Your love. Thank You for staying close and offering restoration like a nurturing mother. Thank You for allowing us to rest in Your care and extend Your love to others, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
