In Matthew 23:37-39, we find Jesus’ lament over Jerusalem. In part He says: “How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing.”
(Instances in the Bible of Jesus having mother characteristics towards his children.) In other words, how often have we desired the same thing as mothers and fathers loving our children like a mother?!
Allan R. Banks (American painter, 1948)
As a mother this rings bells of truth.
Death or life has taken you away. I desired you today, I wanted to gather you up, but you were not willing. In other words, I set you free with prayers and peace , but I became an empty cup.. Welcome back what the Lord Jesus restores and reunites with wisdom, it's a fact , He makes it right again, what was believed to be the end from His divine kingdom of power and hope. Love, peace ,and light . You live in my heart and walk in my mind that's where I find you everyday so we're not far apart. I desired you today, I am waiting to talk. I am loving you like a mother, like no other. Beyond all stars and wonder.
