Unfeigned Faith of a Mother

First let me welcome the Mothers today! Wishing all our Mothers to be exceedingly Blessed, not just today, but every day throughout all the years of their life! We rise up and call you Blessed, you are precious to us! You have given life to us! Parents have a grave responsibility before the Lord and we are challenged as children to Honour our parents. And then we are challenged by our own children to teach them the way of the Lord. “Unfeigned Faith,” what is this?  It is genuine Faith, Sincere Faith, and to understand Unfeigned, we have to look at the most powerful part of that statement which Faith. So much has been said about Faith in the Christian world that I am reluctant to speak about it. Yet Faith is the very existence of our Christian life, our Christian Testimony. It is a belief and trust in the loyalty of our God. Such a belief and trust spills over into our daily life. It is of the utmost importance that someone believes in us, is loyal to us, and we can trust them. In the natural most often this falls the challenge of our Mother. I have walked with many mothers throughout my life as a Pastor and 99.9 a Mother will stand with her child no matter the circumstance. God has given Mothers a strength that surpasses the crisis of our day. Thank God For Mothers. The Faith of a Mother is not easily quenched by the fires of our day. Timothy in the Bible was reminded that there was this “Unfeigned Faith” in his grandmother and in his mother and he was challenged to stir it up. Consider other Mothers in Scripture and you will be blessed!  The wonderful Mother of Jesus, she pondered all things in her heart and stood weeping at the Crucifixion, she was there!  Hannah vowed to God for a child and God answered.  Again Thank God for Mothers, Thank God for the life they have given unto us. Remember God’s Word tells us to “Honour thy Father and Mother; which is the first commandment with promise; That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.”  Loving You, Pastor
