A Mother's Heart

Here is a little poem in honor of Mother's day. Today at church, Pastor Greg Thompson shared how Mary would treasure the things that Jesus did and said in her heart. At that moment the Father showed me how He treasures the hearts of all the mothers in this world. He has put life in their hearts.

A Mother’s Heart


He planted a seed
The Father of all life
Gave to the Mothers
Of His children
A Heavenly anointing
A calling from the Most High

Nurturing strength
Supernatural perseverance
Unfathomable grace

Like a Gardner
Entrusted with raising holy fruit
For her Lord
Reproducing His image
Is her blessed reward

This is the Mother’s heart
For the joy set before her
She travails
Enduring unspeakable sickness, pain, fatigue
In her heart
The Father’s life prevails

Her eyes have seen 
Too much loss for anyone to bear
Lost seeds, saplings, trees
Yet she pushes forward
In grace from her holy decree
To see new life spring forth
His life
His image
His love
Through her veins these course

This is a Mother’s purpose
In His heart she is reassured
For hidden in there
Her precious heart is her Father’s treasure
