The NFA Daily Spotlight: Celebrate Mothers

A mother’s abundant kindness, patience, and love amaze us. She gives a guiding hand to her toddler learning how to walk, wipes away tears when a preteen falls off their new bike, and lends a listening ear to her young adult son or daughter living on their own for the first time.

Moms are our counselors, teachers, healers, negotiators, and so much more.

Moms provide a nurturing heart that keeps families strong and bonded together. Mothers are an essential part of the fundamental unit God designed for healthy, stable families.

Maybe you’re a mother who has a complicated relationship with your adult child. You may be a mom whose own mother has passed away, and her absence is felt more than ever on Mother’s Day. You may be a woman longing to be a mother, and that dream has not yet been fulfilled. Regardless of your situation, know that your story is inscribed on the palm of God’s hands. (Isaiah 49:16) You are not forgotten on Mother’s Day.

Wherever you find yourself on the extraordinary journey of motherhood, the Nebraska Family Alliance team and I wish you a very Happy Mother’s Day!

“She is clothed in strength and dignity, and she smiles at the future.” Proverbs 31:25
