Women have been blessed with the instinctive ability to nurture. In Titus 2 women are exhorted to use that nurturing gift to encourage other women as they seek to live for God's glory. What is the best thing you have experienced in being a spiritual mother?

Seeing others rise up into the position and calling the God has called them to. It's so awesome and wonderful to watch a life transform before our very eyes!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I would ever claim to be a spiritual mother. Years ago, I befriended a co-worker that was struggling with many issues. I encouraged him to seek a personal relationship with the Lord, and gave him a plaque with Jeremiah 29:11. I ran into him recently, and he told me that the scripture changed his life. He is now a strong Christian man with a beautiful wife and kids. He told me that they even had the verse stenciled on their family room wall.
