The bond between a Mother and Daughter can be a precious thing. I am blessed to have a wonderful daughter who loves me. I am also blessed to have an amazing Mother who taught me how to love by example. The Lord has been very good to me.
There are mothers and daughters with strained relationships who probably don't feel blessed. We live in a fallen world where life is not perfect. My prayer is that each mother and daughter might discover a deeper love.
Which category do you fit into? The first one where you have an amazing, close relationship with your mother? Or are you someone who could care less about being with your mom?
The Bible tells us we are called to love, even to love our enemies. We are also commanded to pray for our enemies. How is that going for you? Have you ever prayed for your enemies? If you have, you know it is really hard to stay mad at someone when you pray for them. Right?
Mothers are not perfect...we are human just like everyone. However, mothers do have life experience and a lot to teach you if you will listen. This week I challenge you to pray for your Mother and to do something nice for her. Chances are God might bless you with a daughter someday. What would you want her to do for you? How would you expect her to treat you? Think about it, pray about it, and then follow your heart.
