“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!

Isaiah 49:15 (NIV)

When Jesus taught his disciples to pray they start off the prayer with, “Our Father in heaven” (Matthew 6:5 NIV). Whenever we talk about God, we refer to Him as, well, Him. The Church is a bride waiting for the return of the groom (God). We always think about God as our Father because he is. However, we forget that God is the one who gave love, and all of the attributes of feminine love, to women. Specifically in the area of motherhood.

When I think of Jesus’ parables, I think the Lost Coin has got to be one everyone can identify with. After all, I think most of us have misplaced or lost something at least once in our lives, and we know the joy of finding that lost thing. What I find interesting is it doesn’t seem to matter how small the thing is we’ve lost. We’re just so glad to have found it, and when we find it, there’s an urge to tell everyone about it.

It can be easy though, to get discouraged. Even when we know God is on our side. It’s in those darkest moments when our faith is wavering, and we cry out, “Lord, are you there?” that we are hardest on ourselves because of our lack of faith.

Looking at his disciples, he said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

Luke 6:20 (NIV)

But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort.

Luke 6:24 (NIV)

In the 1967 film, The Producers, Max Bialystock shouts, “That’s it, baby, when you’ve got it, flaunt it! Flaunt it!” We live in a culture that has taken that advice to heart and run with it. Most people who are financially well off have the cars, houses, and lifestyles to prove it. Those blessed with good health and are physically fit are more likely to dress in ways that show off their bodies than those who might be overweight and struggle with keeping fit. Anyone on social media will notice those who have lots of followers over those who do not. Indeed, there are many ways in which someone can be rich or poor and none of them have anything to do with money.
