I praise God for my mother and my wife, which is the mother of my three children. He did this because He loves us and wants us to be His children.ġ. God never quits and He gave up His only begotten Son for us. They cared more for their children than themselves and put up with many inconveniences in order to save the lives of their children.Ģ.

Instead of just using a word, this translation defines the word.ġ. I am going to read our text from the Message translation of the Bible. God has this type of love for us and we should have this type of love for not just our children and family but for all people.ģ. In 1Corinthians 13:4-8 we learn what the components of true love are. Although you don’t believe this, many of the women here today are also examples of true love.Ģ. These two mothers were examples of true love. She loved that child so much that she would have rather given him away than to see him killed.ġ. She was a prostitute, and yet she had great love for her baby.ģ. Notice, this was not an “upstanding citizen”. Here we find another woman that has to make a difficult decision.Ģ. Although things looked hopeless, God worked it out!ġ. This mother risked losing her baby in order to save his life. She had to do this because the Pharaoh had ordered that all Hebrew boys that were born were to be thrown in the Nile River.ģ. In Exodus 2 we find a Levite woman hiding her baby boy for three months.Ģ. I want to share with you this morning two biblical examples of mothers who loved their children so much that they would do anything.ġ. Mothers, although you feel sometimes that you can’t go on even one more day and that you must be the worst mother ever, you are not alone. A loving mother will do anything for her child. Yet, you love them with all of your being.Ģ. Those children that don’t seem to appreciate you. Those children that don’t follow your rules. Those children that keep you up all night. Those children that make messes in your home. Every mother here has been severely tested by or because of your children.
