Hey Mama Monday: You Are as Special to God as Your Kids Are to You

Hey Mama,

Just stopping in to remind you of how special you are to the Lord. You know how you love your kids? That bond is so great, nothing could ever break it, right? You would die for them. You would lay your life down to save theirs. I know you would. You’re just that kind of Mama.

Your great God and Savior died for you, too. He laid his life down for you. He’s just that kind of God.

You are loved. You are cherished, Christian Mama, by your Father in Heaven. He will never leave nor forsake you, any more than you would forsake your own dear children. Did you know he loves you FAR more than you could ever love your own? Did you know His love for you is something you can’t even yet comprehend? It’s so much higher than we are.

His love is deep. His love is wide. His patience is enormous. His mercy never ceases. His heart can be trusted. By now, you have seen His heart, so you know this.

His smile is broad. His arms are strong. His care is a never-ending gift, and it’s for YOU, Mama. His hand is resting gently on your head, and you will not waver. You are His.

Your children, also. Let them know, too, of His great love for them. Your family glorifies Christ, and He will be with you always.

Rest, Mama. Rest in His smile. Trust His kind heart. May His love, protection, and provision be on you and your family forever. Love, – Gena
