Jeff Pollard explains in this video that mothers have among the highest callings in human experience. They are vital. Adam was incomplete without Eve. He could not do what commanded Him to do without her. Mothers add much to the family. They are able to significantly influence their children -- for better or for worse.

Proverbs 31:28-29 (NKJV) - "Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her: 'Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all.'

The Motherhood of God Mothers have among the highest calling in human experience. They are vital. Adam was utterly incomplete without Eve. He could not do what God commanded him to do. He could not be fruitful and multiply by himself.

So God gave Adam his Eve and she became the mother of all living. Mothers are extraordinary forces of change. They are and should be powerful in the home. They add much of the nurture aspect to a family. If there is a genuine gentleness and sweetness, that usually exudes from the mother.

Everyone depends on her at some level. Her husband, of course, cannot bring up those children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord without her. And she is, in fact, if I can put it this way, she's not in a master-servant relationship with her husband. She is in a king-queen relationship. So that queen mother is vital to her husband's role as the leader of the home.

She has special input to those children not only because she bears them but because she cares for them very often while the husband is gone. So it's easy for a mother to get discouraged with the load that she bears on any given day. And as the children multiply, and as their sinful natures begin to show, mothers have to know the Lord Jesus Christ. They have to know the Word of God. They have to be women of prayer so that they can guide these children, encourage them, discipline them properly, and all of that can become discouraging.

Women often feel overwhelmed And I think it's vital for any husband who really understands his calling that he makes sure that his wife has time to spend with Christ, time at least to sit and meditate and calm her heart before the Lord.
