Is. 63-65 [The Message]

One aspect of God’s nature is that of a nurturing mother. YES, He’s our Heavenly Father, but he also displays the reaching, gathering, comforting quality of a mother with her children. [Is. 66:13]

As Christ gazed upon Jerusalem and lamented over their back-slidden condition, He said, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones [to death] those [messengers] who are sent to her [by God]! How often I have wanted to gather your children together [around Me], just as a hen gathers her young under her wings, but you were not willing!” [Luke 13:34 AMP]

Is there someone you would like to see come closer to the Lord? Lift their name to God in prayer right now and keep praying. God’s Spirit will reach out to them and draw them to Himself.
