May is the month we celebrate a very select and specific group of women. To be a part of this elite community, one must be born with a very specialized ability: ovaries and a womb that are capable of conceiving and carrying a new human life to birth. The term “mother” applies equally to a biological woman who cannot conceive, but enters motherhood through fostering or adoption. Being a mother is often wonderfully rewarding and often diffi cult and painful. In Genesis, after the first man and woman disobeyed God, He told the woman, “You will bear children with painful effort.” God was referring not only the pain of childbirth, but the pain of mothering in a world that opposes and demeans life and godliness at every turn. 05/22/2023 11:00 PM
