There is perhaps no greater illustration of God’s love for us than a mother’s love for her child. A mother’s love is fierce and boundless, just like God’s love is for us. Our mothers love us on our worst days, just like God does. A mother’s love for her child is sacrificial, and God’s is, too.
It is with this simple assertion in mind that I wish a Happy Mother’s Day to my wife and daughter, and to the memory of my mom.
See what great love the Father has lavished on us.
1 John 3:1a (NIV)
