Children Loved By Grace-Energized Mothers
Series Energized by Grace
God is love, the greatest of all Christian virtues is love, and love energized by God lasts forever.
What can be the most powerful aspect of a wife and mother's life on earth as she obeys God's calling for her life? God wants it to be her grace-energized love.
What does God say will last forever from all the endless and mostly unseen hours of work that being a wife and mother entail? All the deeds offered in obedience to the Lord produced by grace-energized-love.
In Titus 2:4 we find the key that produces eternal reward from every day of a grace-energized wife's marriage and a grace-energized mother's family. Paul explains that the key is love. The first calling of a wife and mother in God's Word is to be LOVE.
[Our] gifts, [and our] ministries, all one day will cease to exist because they will cease to have purpose or meaning. But our showing love [to our husbands and children], practicing [that] love, [and] living [ that] love now--are of utmost importance, more important than having any of the other virtues or gifts, because love is the link God gives us with His eternal Self[1][1].
God is love (I John 4:8), and everyone who is born of God loves (I John 4:7)—so the greatest of all the virtues, the one that will last forever, is love (I Corinthians 13:13).
The key to grace-energized lives, marriages, and families is love.
