As Rohan came up from the waters of baptism his mother Mina couldn’t hold back her tears. Testifying before the church after the Baptism service, she joyfully remarked “Only God could have changed Rohan from a sinner into a soul-winner.” She was referring to the 360-degree transformation that had occurred in her son’s life in these past few months. Rohan, a bright and promising student, had been addicted to drugs and alcohol all through his years in college. But his mother’s tearful prayers over the years had been instrumental in setting him on a new path towards the Saviour.  

Mother’s Day is a special time to pause, reflect, and celebrate the incredible gift of mothers like Mina. Women whose love, strength, and sacrifice often mirror the very heart of God. Whether through loving nurture, quiet faithfulness or tireless prayer godly mothers leave deep and lasting marks on the lives of their children and others to whom they extend themselves.  This Mother’s Day let us slow down and recognize the timeless influence of mothers who follow Christ.  

Through these next four devotionals, we hope that you will reflect on God’s heart which is often displayed through these simple but godly women. Whether you are in a place where motherhood is a joy or even burden, we hope that these reflections will draw you closer to the One who loves us and our children more than any mother ever can. May the Lord meet you on this journey with His comfort, strength, and unfailing love.
