The year is fast moving along. I share a word of God says about a mother of Zion.
In this case, the mother in Zion is all mothers but specially mothers raising children with special needs. The special mothers task is that which only God's grace can see you through.When you first find out when your child is diagnosed with a special need and the pain of raising them and the questions you ask yourself about their future knowing the imminent challenges that may lie ahead can leave you with various emotional challenges. Being a mother a huge blessing from God.Being a mother raising children with special needs requires just that, that very special mother. You are chosen mother of Zion.
When Blind Bartimeaus heard that Jesus was in town, he did everything to find him for a healing. The people were against him getting near Jesus and asked Jesus which one of this boys parents have done anything wrong to cause his blindness and Jesus replied," neither his mother of father have done anything wrong. God is raising you away from blame, shame and worry about your child's condition be it from society or your inner questioning. Once you have risen from that and not by your own strength, he bring out in you a beauty within you you never knew existed. A beauty to arise and shine and go forth to find your hidden calling,your hidden talent.
Rise up against any shame and judgement on your situation. You know the ones you've heard. By God's grace you will overcome and develop a resilience which comes from what the word of God says about you and your child.
You've punished yourself by self blame and self questioning and self judgement as to whether you did the right things. Its enough from a society that apportions blame onto the mother raising a child with special needs. Its of no use Mother of Zion.
You, Mother in Zion are a chosen, anointed and appointed to raise Gods,precious ones. If you see it this way it makes it more easier to forge ahead and keep doing great works God has called you to be.
Like the Israelites you are a people of God . Isaiah 60:40.
God knows best. Batimeaus found him in town. You can find him in your heart. Find him in your heart and abandon your needs at his feet.You are a mother in Zion so arise and shine.
Stay blessed
Blessed Jackqueline
