The Motherhood of God
Isaiah 66:13
As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.


God is Creator, Preserver, Father, but something more.

I. A good mother has a wonderful fund of SYMPATHY; so has God.

II. Motherhood is wonderful in its CONSTANCY; so is God.

III. Motherhood is GRIEVED OVER SIN; So is God.

IV. A mother's love is often REDEMPTIVE; God's love is redemptive ten thousand times more.

(D. J. Rounsefell.)
