Mother’s Day is today, and we hope you’ll take some time this weekend to pay respects to your mother–or if that isn’t possible, to somebody in your life with who embodies the grace and wisdom we associate with godly mothers.
With the holiday in mind, we present several resources from Bible Gateway for mothers:
What’s a mom’s greatest responsibility?
A reflection from the Mom’s Devotional Bible challenges mothers to pass on to your children your faith in Jesus.
Additional Scripture Readings: Deuteronomy 6:4–9; 1 Peter 3:15
Who introduced you to Jesus?
Perhaps it was a college roommate. Or your husband. Or a friend from a local women’s group. Maybe it was a minister or a youth group leader. And maybe, just maybe, it was your grandmother or even your mom.
What another did for you, God is asking you to do for your children: Pass along your faith in Jesus. How?
Someone introduced you to Jesus. It’s now time for you, Mom, to pass it on to your children.
