JESUS LOVES HIS MOTHER

“When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!  Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother!  And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.”

John 19:26,27 KJV

I believe when Jesus was hanging on the cross bruised and beaten beyond recognition with the blood flowing down His body that He wanted to come down from the cross and run into His mother’s comforting arms but He stayed on the cross because He loves you and He loves me.

Jesus set the example for us to follow when He took care of His mother.  O that you and I would follow the example of our Saviour and take care of our own mother.  My Mother died several years ago and I miss her but it brings peace to my heart to know that she isn’t in pain.  Thank God for our mothers.

Heavenly Father, I pray for every mother and grandmother.  Please comfort and encourage them and may they feel Your love for them as they have never felt it before.  Some mothers have been praying for their children for many years.  Please answer their prayers.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
