Being a mother is a very hard job, it requires a lot of sacrifice. These verses serve to honor all those dedicated mothers who deserve our love and respect:
1. A Role Model

but you surpass them all.”
Proverbs 31:28-29
Mums are an example of dedication, affection, and perseverance. They deserve our gratitude.
2. A Mother's Love
"4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away."

A mother's love reflects the pure and true love that comes from God.
