Yesterday, in our church services, two beautiful women spoke on mothers. I was touched by their words, especially their sentiments that a woman can have a mother's heart even if she is not biologlically a mother. Isn't that wonderful? To have a mother's heart is to care, to love, to tend.
I have a number of friends who are not biological mothers, yet they have a mother's heart. One friend dresses dolls every year and gives them to a charity where they will be given to little girls who might not otherwise receive a special doll. Surely she has a mother's heart. Another friend cannot have children, but she teaches in Primary and shares her love of the Gospel with the youngest and most precious of the Lord's children. She, too, possesses a mother's heart.
So, for today, I am grateful for those have a mother's heart.
I love this post. So many out there do indeed have a mother's heart.
