The Biblical Mothers of Legacy
Pastor’s Desk
I often wonder about God’s profound and perfect plan of redemption.God must have known that the creation He loved would fail, even though that creation was crafted in His own image. When it did fail, God was there with His plan of redemption. That plan would find its fruition through the “seed of the woman”. That seed was fulfilled in the young virgin Mary. However, there is a long list of great patriarchs and every one of them had a mother – A mother who nurtured them and who God used in the development of His plan of salvation. Even Eve, though she fell into temptation, is seen as the mother of all humanity – A humanity that God chose to redeem. In the Garden, God made a promise and that promise would be first given to Sarah who is considered the “mother of the promise”. That promise was passed on to Rebekah who secured for her son, Jacob (Israel) a position within that promise. Consider also, a woman by the name of Jochebed, the motherof Moses, whom God would use to deliver His people to the very Land of the Promise. Today we will look to a line of women chosen by God, though whom we find our very salvation.
