Message: There is an attack on women and mothers in our society. The role of women is established to complete and complement Adam. Women are twice refined, having been created from Adam who was made from dust which was refined into man by God. Women are to be treated with care as with a fragile and valuable china. The place of women is to be joined with man to make the home, the raising of children and all other things of life better. Women are an important representative of God's love, teaching those in her care to trust the sovereignty of God and His Word. God's plan for women is the reason for the "all out" attack, in that ever birth reminds Satan of a seed which will bind him and cast Him into the lake of fire. Motherhood reflects the glory of God, the creational role, because it is the clearest example of the difference between man and women. In a loving mother, we are shown what God's love is like and see Christ gathering His people as a hen gathers her chicks under wing. Mothers can take the abstract feelings of love and materialize it into a child, a meal or a hospitable home. A father's role is not abdicated by the role of women, rather it is to be part of the team, which began before children, to determine how they would be raised. As fathers and mothers we often fail, let us look inward with prayer.
