A mother’s unconditional, sacrificial love leads to exhibit a compassionate heart, from which flows loving and kind, words and deeds. The term mother implies to feed, nourish, protect, sacrifice, teach, forgive, give, empower, launch, and much more. Bible readers find these characteristics in the Scriptures. Mother, grandmother, stepmother, mother-in-law, they are all in the text, and they are all of incalculable value in bringing up children “in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4b).

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations . . .” (Matthew 28:19a). Jesus told the eleven apostles to “make disciples of all nations.” The apostles mission and ours as well is one with a worldwide scope. Our goal is to make all the world His disciples. We seek to win all people to Christ. No one is to be excluded. Are you a disciple of Jesus Christ? You are if you have been baptized “in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19) and are now seeking to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18).
