Some people just pray, but, she who wins souls and mothers them into heaven is not one who sits in her chair waiting for the prodigal, but the mother who will turn stones over to rescue and hold her wayward loved one into heaven. They should be more sorry for your being sorry that they are not living holy. She said she learned that from Ethel Waters. She told those children that she would be looking for them in heaven when she gets there and not one of those souls are lost. They have her impression on their minds, turning over stones in heaven that not one of them is lost. That is motherhood. It is hard, but they must see your expectation of their redemption, at last. None of this "let go and let God" for your children and husband's souls. SOS is just that!
We are members of one another, of His flesh and of His bones. We are bound in the New Testament, by the church. If the church is going down then we are going down. If the church in our generation is going up then we are going up.Julius Ceasar's rhetoric that "We are not going down, we are going up!" may convince of the direction of a boat or a vessel, but the souls of our generation are not won by fancy rhetoric and convincing speeches. We must be the mothers that God called us to be. That is the winsomeness of the generation. When the moon is blood in the NYT time of the world, motherhood is despised and the souls are breaking chains that bind us together, in the name of individuality. Bind us together, Lord, should be our prayer. Draw us close to Yourself in Your likeness in Your church for Your glory, until we all come to the unity of the faith. Growing up into Christ in "all things". This begins at home and then in church and then in community. God help us to envisioned being unbanned from the Gold of Heavenly Fellowship. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
