A
perfect mother has never existed.
Nonetheless,
God has the ability to use mothers, through their strengths and their weaknesses. There are valuable
life lessons to learn, if we are willing.
Take
Eve, for example. She was the first woman and the first mother. There are pros
and cons to that. She didn’t have anyone to compare herself to, but also she
didn’t have a mother or a mother-in-law she could call on for help or advice.
Eve
gave birth without the help of a doctor or even a mid-wife. Can you imagine what the very first birth must have been like?
