Having lived on the mission field, I've experienced many holidays (including Mother's Day) separated from my children. And, even though we are now pastoring here in the States, it's still difficult to see them on the holidays. But, I'm extremely thankful that we're on the same continent and I can talk to them daily. {And, I was blessed today, as my two sons surprised me by traveling up to spend the afternoon with me! What a joy to see them!}<br />You asked for a quote from a mother. Oh, there are so many wonderful examples of mothers in the Bible, but today I thought of Hagar. After she became pregnant, Sarah mistreated her, so she fled. But the angel of the Lord found her near a spring in the desert, and told her to go back to her mistress and submit to her. At that point, she gave a name to the Lord who spoke to her: "You are the God who sees me, for she said, 'I have now seen the God who sees me.'" The well was called Beer Lahai Roi ("well of the one who sees me and who lives"). PRAISE GOD! No matter where we are, where we may flee to, HE sees us (Job 23:8-10) and has compassion on us and deals gently with us as a mother who comforts her child (Isaiah 66:13; Zephaniah 3:17). Praying God's blessings on you today!Charlotte Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12360318451969451383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704968693556347590.post-47472234099819358022012-05-13T11:21:58.423-04:002012-05-13T11:21:58.423-04:00Beautiful post!
