Moments for Mums: When We Make Mistakes - Part 1Voorbeeld

As a mum, I want to be a place of safety, love, and compassion for my daughter. I want her to see me as the person she can share anything with, knowing that I will forgive her, love her and help her to move forward. I don’t always get it right, with my responses sometimes shutting down that trust. My own desire to be in that place of love points me to God’s heart towards me. He isn’t angry and spiteful, gleefully waiting for a chance to punish me. He doesn’t run out of love. And yet, that is how I approach him at times. When I trust that he loves me unconditionally and is full of compassion and mercy, I want to go to him with my mistakes, troubles, and heartaches. I want to spend time with him. Question How do you really see God? Does it match up with the truth in these verses? Prayer God, give me a fresh revelation of these truths of who you are. ‘Look down and have mercy on me. Give strength to your servant.’ Amen.
