God bless all of you protective mothers on Mother's Day, and also our friends and supporters in our struggle for justice for our children.
I wanted to remind you that Mary, the Mother of Jesus understands our struggles, understands our love for our children and the tremendous obstaces we face speaking the truth to corrupt judges, corrupt attorneys, and even more corrupt mental health professionals.
I was talking to a group of friends the other day and I said Christians forget that Jesus celebrates the weakest amongst us. Those who are the very least, He elevates to the very highest position, those who are reviled He praises, and upon those who are denied, he pours our His Holy Spirit.
And so we Protective Mothers continue to battle on, secure in our Victory through Jesus Christ, knowing that we will prevail.
Today on this special day, one that is so vital to Mary, the Mother of Our Lord, and also to us as Mothers, I want to remind you again of Mary's words as she celebrates Christ's entrance into the world:
My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
He hath shewed strength with his arm, he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he hath sent empty away.
He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy.
As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
This is the essence of the Christian message. The love of the very least among us. The love of those most vulnerable. The love of those most tragically harmed.
Mary says,
He will scatter the proud! He will put down the mighty!
He will send the rich away empty!
He will have mercy on them that fear him! He will exalt the lowly! He will feed the hungry!
So, we can rest easy today, knowing that God supports us in our struggles, he upholds us in our weakness, he loves each one of us beyond measure. Many of you do not have your children with you today, your hearts are aching, and you are overwhelmed with pain and worry. Know that you are not alone, that God loves you and your children and you will prevail and find healing.
