Mothering

 ~ Not All Are Mothers, But All Should Mother! ~

Introduction  ~  Mother’s Day in the U.S.A. is a time to honor all the women in our lives.  While all women do not have children, all women have a role to play in the mothering of the young with whom they have ongoing contact. 

Roles  ~  All women are to love children.  This takes many forms including teaching, encouraging, and correcting.  These are vital roles which all adults have yet God has enabled women with special abilities in these areas. 

Scripture  ~  “The virgin’s name was Mary.  And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among [among, not above] women!” (Luke 1:27b-28).

“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).

“Who can find a virtuous wife?  For her worth is far above rubies…  her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all.’  Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.  Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates” (Proverbs 31:10, 28-31).
