GOD PAUSE- July 1 Isaiah 66:10-14 Isaiah describes God as a comforting mother. I was blessed with a devoted mother whose acts of love helped me understand the blessings of God. My mom changed my diapers and bathed me. She clothed me with clothes she had laundered. My mom made nutritious meals, only to see me refuse to eat them. When I was sick, day and night, she was there. She endured the weekly fight to take me to church. When I felt ugly, she would tell me I was handsome. My mom always forgave me. Her door was always open to welcome me back home. I give thanks that, like a comforting mother, God cleanses, clothes, nurtures, cares for and looks upon us with love, brings us to saving faith, forgives, and never tires in welcoming us back home. God of love, bless parents and families. Give us eyes to see You in acts of sacrifice and love. Amen.
