Helps for the Pulpit Isaiah 66:13 As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem. God will comfort His people — 1. With all the affection and solicitude of a mother. See the mother how she loves, strives, labours, suffers, and sacrifices for her child. 2. With all the long-suffering and forbearance of a mother. 3. With all the forgiveness and consolation of a mother. How ready to forgive her erring, wandering child — and ready to console in trouble. 4. With all the instruction and correction of a mother. God teaches in various ways, and whom He loveth He chasteneth. 5. With all the constancy of a moter. (Helps for the Pulpit.)
