May 11, 2024 – Quote for the Day:
“Mothers are perhaps most celebrated when we, their children, can see how they, in some way, enabled us to see and experience something of God’s unconditional love. In that light, remember:
- The biological act of childbirth does not deliver all attributes to a woman that enable her to be the mother her children need. There’s more to motherhood than biology.
- Women who truly grow and mature into motherhood often sacrifice themselves for the good of their family. When, for example, there are only three pieces of pie left, but four people at the dinner table, mothers will often announce that they don’t really care for this type of pie.
- From Julian of Norwich, written over 600 years ago –
‘As we know, our own mother bore us only into pain and dying. But our true mother, Jesus, who is all love, bears us into joy and endless living.’”
