The Motherhood of God
“God could not be everywhere, so He made Mothers.”- Jewish saying.
(Mt. 6:8, 7:11; Gal. 4:6; 2 Cor. 1:3, 4; Isa. 49:15)
1. GOD COMFORTS BY HIS PRESENCE (JN. 14:18)
2. GOD COMFORTS US BY HIS WORDS (JN. 6:67, 68)
3. GOD COMFORTS US BY HIS SILENCE
“In the heart of Jesus, there is love for you. Love most pure and tender, love most deep and true. Why should I be lonely, why for friendship sigh, when the heart of Jesus has a full supply.”
4. GOD COMFORTS US BY HIS SYMPATHY (LUKE 13:34)
“As trustful as a child who looks up in his mother’s face,
and all his little griefs and fears forgets in her embrace;
So I, to thee, my Saviour, look, and in thy face divine,
can read the love that will sustain as weak a faith as mine.”
