Mother's Day is usually a time to celebrate mothers all over the world and the amazing things they do and sacrifices they have made. You get to read and see the pictures on Facebook of all the great relationships between mothers and their children and stories of years gone by.
Yet there are many people who suffer in silence, longing to have that type of loving relationship and memories with their own mothers. There is a misconception that just because someone gave birth does not mean that they are automatically the loving, maternal kind of mother.
You see, there are many adults who grew up with “loveless mothers” and rarely speak up about the abuse or pain they suffered at the hands and heart of these types of mothers. These type of mothers were unwilling to show them unconditional love, encouragement, protection and lifelong love. In fact, some people even into adulthood still are experiencing ongoing emotional and psychological abuse at the hands of mothers who at times could be mean, evil & manipulative.
I want to address this post to those people that can relate to my writing.
First of all I want to let you know that if you grew up or are still dealing with a “loveless mother” it is not you that is unlovable, nor are you not good enough, or unworthy enough to be loved. It’s not you that has the problem. Sadly these types of mothers will never understand or experience the love they could have received from their children given the opportunity. It is their loss at their own hands.
As adults you do not have to continue suffering in silence and allow the past to affect you any longer. Learn to forgive the unforgivable no matter how many times they keep opening the wound. Remember that it is not wrong to love from a distance in order to maintain your sanity and to live in peace. Most of all allow the love and word of God dictate your worthiness and not the false words of others.
Let me encourage you with these words from your Heavenly Father:
Even if your father and mother abandon you, I the LORD will hold you close. Psalm 27:10
Even if your mother can not or refuses to love you, I will never forget you. Isa 49:15
You are fearfully and wonderfully made by me. Psa 139:13-16
You are precious in my eyes. Isa 43:4
You are my workmanship for good. Eph 2:10
You are worth dying for. John 3:16
You don’t have to fear, because I will always be with you, I will strengthen you, help you, uphold you, and protect you. Isa 41:10
Go out and celebrate Mother’s day knowing that you are so precious and loved by your Heavenly Father and surround yourself with those mothers that are great examples and learn from them.
