...Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. Proverbs 31:25-28(KJV).

 

Most Mother’s Day sermons focus on all that’s great about motherhood. Of course, motherhood is a great honor, but as mentioned earlier, it doesn’t bring up great memories for everyone.
Throughout the Bible you can find a variety of women who dealt with motherhood’s struggles. When you engage people with those stories, you’ll find many women (and men) who can relate. Moms can identify with them through their own struggles, and for those who need to be reconciled with parents or forgive mothers who have passed, it’s an opportunity to see challenges from another perspective. 

Here are some examples of biblical women who understood the adversities of motherhood:

  • Eve: The first mother who lost one child at the hands of another.
  • Rebekah: Isaac’s wife who struggled with favoritism of her son Jacob over Esau.
  • Jochebed: A caring mother who had to give her son Moses up.

These stories remind us all that it’s okay if relationships between mothers and children aren’t perfect and that God is at work even in those tough situations. It’s tough enough sometimes to care for ourselves, but adding in the responsibilities we have toward are children can sometimes feel overwhelming.
Our great assurance is that God is at work redeeming our biggest mistakes and accidents—for both parents and children alike.

                        SOME BIBLE VERSES ABOUT MOTHERS

  • Isaiah 49:15: "Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne?"

  • Deuteronomy 6:6–7: "And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise."
  • Proverbs 31:31: "Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate."
