God defines a mother according to purpose. Her purpose binds the family together, holding them together through her love and actions.
Proverbs 31, this entire chapter describes a Godly mother, known for her wisdom, strength, and dedication to her family. She is selfless, loving and puts her family before her own needs.
Mothers have different names. They can be the one that gives you life, or they can be the one that nurtured you, raised you, and was always there for you.
Proverbs 31:31 Honor her for all her hands have done, and let her works bring praise at the city gate.
Isaiah 66:13 As a Mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you.
A quote to remember: “Life doesn’t come with a manual, it comes with a mother."
Amen
