Why God Created Mothers

 

I know why God gave me my mother…

 

God’s love for his children

Is infinite, consistent and sure

He is an ever-faithful father

But God needed someone to do

Down here, the everyday little things

Like cuddling us when we’re little

And kissing our childish wounds

Like rocking us into sweet slumber

And tucking us into bed at night

Like giving us our goodnight kisses

And receiving our morning hugs

❤

God needed help with special treats

Like baking cupcakes and cookies

And making all our favorite pies

Like having a hot meal on the table

When we get back home from school

Like having Sunday picnics on the beach

And Christmas dinner with family and friends

❤

God couldn’t be here physically

To embrace us in His God-sized arms

When we’re lonely, scared or sad

To talk us out of our brokenness

When dear friends break our hearts

He couldn’t be here to help bear our pain

To celebrate our successes; to share our joys

❤

God couldn’t come again in person

To gently tend us when we’re ill

To cheer us on at sports events

Or applaud on our graduation day

He couldn’t be down here in person

To stand up for us when we’ve been wronged

To stand behind us when we’re fearful

Or cry tears of joy on our wedding day.

❤

God couldn’t come and show Himself to us

Yet he shines His countenance upon us

And He sees our every deed

He couldn’t come down to stay with us

But He dwells in our Hearts

And knows our every need

God needed a helper in the home

So He gave us our mother

And He blessed her with

The special gift of selfless love

And wants every child to experience

The wonders of a mother’s love.

❤

So I’m thankful for my mother

God’s special gift to me

I’m blessed to have a mother

So faithful, kind and caring

I’m grateful for my mother

Who fills my life with endless love

❤

Happy Mother’s Day, Mama!

On this special day for mothers
