- Isaiah 49:15 (NIV): “Is it possible for a mother to forget about her nursing child? Is it possible that she has no feelings for the child she has given birth to?”

- “She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue,” says Proverbs 31:26.

- 6:67 in Deuteronomy: “And these words, which I order you to remember today, shall be written on your heart. You must diligently teach them to your children, and you must discuss them when you sit in your house, when you walk along the street, when you lie down, and when you rise.”

- 139:13-14 in Psalm 139:13-14 in Psalm 139:13-14 in P “Because you created my internal organs and stitched me together in my mother's womb.

What does mother symbolize in the Bible?
In the Bible, mothers are depicted as honorable creatures deserving of their children's and community's love and respect. Mary, a woman, was the one who brought the saviour, Jesus Christ, into the world, and every mother in the world is said to be related to her.

What is a spiritual parent?
Second, a spiritual parent's purpose isn't to invent a new way to construct your own kingdom; it's to follow the biblical model of deploying and releasing individuals in God's Kingdom. In biological families, some parents find it difficult to let go of their children. They want them to be able to realize their own unmet aspirations and desires. This is never a good idea. Conversations with mature children are significantly different than guidelines for toddlers and teenagers. This type of discipleship that I'm writing about is done with adults. I have a number of spiritual fathers to whom I go for guidance, counsel, and prayer. I don't always go to ask for their permission. Each of them provides me with something unique. We can't expect our spiritual dads to be everything for us; they can only be themselves and the gifts that God has bestowed upon them. It is listening to and comprehending Jesus' followers, rather than attempting to mold them into your image. They have a divine destiny; your goal is to assist them grow into the image of Jesus, not to mold them into your image.
Finally, every child requires both a father and a mother.
When both parents are absent, a single parent's child requires aunts, uncles, grandparents, and close family friends to help fill in the gaps.
Many people might be offended by this, but I feel it is psychologically necessary to understand why the Catholic Church perceives Mary the way it does.
We all require both a father and a mother.
I believe that the father/mother traits are present in the Trinity, not just in male and female designations.
You can't help but think about the Holy Spirit, the God of all comfort, the Spirit living in us, and a slew of other analogies – as well as Jesus and how he loves.
Paul is definitely neither male nor female when he writes.
I occasionally need to hear my mother's voice.
We shall become lop-sided if we only hear the male side of God.
Fourth, spiritual parenting entails spiritual sons and daughters accompanying you in your environment to observe you.
We all have things we do without thinking that are second nature to us, but they are not to others.

What God says about being a mom?
She should lean on God in good times and bad, and teach her children about His rescuing grace.
“I've always remembered my mother's prayers, and they've always been with me. They've been clinging to me my entire life.” President Abraham Lincoln
Proverbs 31:10-12 is a passage from the book of Proverbs. Who could ever find a lady as strong as this oneshe is a woman of enormous valor! She's brimming with wealth and knowledge, and the price paid for her was larger than the value of many jewels. Because she brings him the great prizes of triumph, her husband has given his heart to her. She delivers him good rather than bad throughout her life.
3:4 1 Peter Instead, you should dress yourself in the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and tranquil soul, which God values so highly.
1:26-28 in 1 Samuel “Please, my lord,” she said, “I am the woman who stood here by you praying to the Lord as sure as you live.” I prayed for this boy, and since the Lord granted my request, I now surrender the boy to Him. He is given to the Lord for as long as he lives.” Then he bowed to the Lord there in worship.
1 Timothy 2:1-5 I recall your true faith, since you share the same faith that your grandma Lois and mother Eunice had when they were young. That same faith, I'm sure, is still alive and well in you.
31:25 (Proverbs) “She is dressed with power and dignity, and she will be able to laugh in the days ahead.”
1:46-48 Luke 1:46-48 Luke 1:46-48 Luke 1 And Mary said, “My soul announces the Lord's majesty, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, because He has looked favorably on His slave's humble state.” From now on, all generations will undoubtedly refer to me as blessed.
31:30 Proverbs Beauty and charm are deceiving, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
3:4 1 Peter However, let your ornamentation be a hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and peaceful spirit, which is extremely valuable in God's eyes.
5:22 (Galatians) Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are the fruit of the Spirit, and there is no law against them.

That story reminded me of a poem I'd read a long time ago.
I kept it in my Bible since I, too, grew up with a praying mother.
Why did God create mothers?
Mothers are a divine gift. Motherhood is part of God's original plan for people to carry out his will in the world. Mothers were created to display God's glory.
- They labor without complaint around the clock to keep us happy. And their cheerful demeanor brightens the day.
- They are forgiving, hardworking multitaskers who appear to be able to take on the world with ease.
- They put their own desires on hold in order to satisfy yours, and they prioritize their families and children.
- Even if the mother is a working mother, she still manages her job, her home, and all of your tasks without you having to say anything.
No child should ever feel as if they had to earn their mother's affection. Children's affection for their mothers originates in the mother's womb. This is referred to as pulse bonding. It will be a vacuum in their hearts for the rest of their lives. Unless they are at peace with their past, a youngster will occasionally find love in a million ways if it is not outlawed. Our children's lives are built on the sensitive foundation we provide them at home. The value of a house and the strength of a mother's love cannot be underestimated. No one can take the position of a mother in this world.
She is our defender, shielding us from all harmful forces. She is a strict disciplinarian who knows how to punish her children. Her children have a great buddy with whom they can share anything. A selfless, loving, and caring mother. A donor who devotes her entire life to raising her children to be excellent human beings. A mother who ensures that her child is competent in terms of abilities, knowledge, and skills in order to make her child strong enough to face any challenge.
All mothers like being mothers and will do so for the rest of their life. A new newborn is constantly showered with love, adoration, and devotion. Her entire universe revolves around children.
First and foremost, each mother plays a vital and sensitive role in the family. The importance of the mother's role in the child's upbringing cannot be overstated. Most importantly, mothers have a significant influence on their children's attitudes. It is the mother's responsibility to determine whether a child will be nice or bad. As a child grows older, he begins to adopt the moral ideals instilled in him by his mother, which is likely to play a significant influence in each child's development. We typically recall the ideals instilled in us by our mothers till we are old. As a result, the mother's contribution to society's well-being is unconditional. Mothers and their children have had a strong bond since birth. This link was never the same as everybody else's. Even the fathers were unable to reach an agreement. The beginning of this bond can be traced back to childhood. Above all, a mother can grasp her child's problem without any conversation. It undoubtedly fosters a strong emotional bond between a mother and her kid. When a youngster is hungry, a mother appears to understand.
What is the role of a parent according to the Bible?
A parent's biblical job is to be a good steward of the children God has entrusted to them. It is the obligation of parents to look after their children's spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being. A parent's most crucial biblical responsibility is to teach their children about Jesus via both deed and word.
The Bible's revelation of God's Word helps us comprehend who we are, who God is, and how God and humans interact. Scripture conveys eternal and frequently unsettling truths about our nature, souls, and history. It's good for all kinds of relationships.
As a parent, there are three major biblical truths that will help you succeed in your role. Knowing these will help you manage your expectations and respect biblical limits as you continue on your parenting journey.
