As Mother’s Day approaches, it’s a time to celebrate and honor the mothers in our lives. But for some, this day can bring a feeling of sadness or loss. There are children who have lost their mothers, or who have never known the love and guidance of a mother figure. That’s where the theme of “Be a mother to the motherless” comes in.

“And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities.” – Alma 7:12 Christ’s willingness to take upon himself the infirmities of his people and to show them mercy. As we seek to be mothers to the motherless, we can follow Christ’s example by taking upon ourselves the needs and pains of those who are hurting.

Being a mother to the motherless means reaching out to those who may be feeling alone or forgotten. It means providing a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, and a hand to hold. It means showing love and kindness to those who may have never experienced it before.

This Mother’s Day, let us not only celebrate the mothers in our lives but also remember those who may not have a mother figure to celebrate with. Let us be the mothers they need, showing them the love and care that Christ himself would show. By being a mother to the motherless, we can make a difference in the lives of those around us and bring joy and hope to those who need it most.
