God, Perfect, Protective Parent

Good Morning!! As unthinkable as it may seem, as unnatural as it clearly is, it's possible even for a mother to forget or neglect, her nursing baby. There have been so many shocking accounts in the news lately, of mothers who've hurt or killed, their own infant children, or allowed someone else to,...for selfish reasons. They may become frustrated, or exhausted; or she may simply put herself first, and not consider the needs of her baby's needs.

“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!—Isaiah 49:15 (NIV)

God speaks this unalterable, unmistakable promise: even if our own mothers were to turn against us, or forget us, yet He will never forget us. Although in a fallen and sinful world, parents may neglect or abuse their children, God will always nurture and prosper and provide for His.

Though circumstances may deteriorate, though fathers may disappoint, though friends may forsake,...God will never let us go.

O' Lord, allow us to fall into Your ever-present, compassionate embrace today, and rest in the fact that You will never leave or forsake us. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

"Faith helps us walk fearlessly,
run confidently,
and live victoriously."
