Blessed day my dear hivers, I hope you are well. It is always a pleasure to share ideas, thoughts and emotions with you. That's why I am happy to participate again in the Energy Refill Contest, contest organized by my dear @tripode in which she invites us to reflect and recharge our energies with positive thoughts.
“Dios no podía estar en todas partes
y por eso creó a las madres”"
Rudyard Kipling
This is a phrase that involves an intention to honor the mother and although I understand very well its intrinsic meaning, I cannot help but point out that certainly God can be everywhere since God is omnipresent; He can be anywhere and at the same time.
De igual modo, interpreto que Dios nos regala a la madre para, a través de ella, mostrarnos su infinito amor y misericordia.
Quién te puede querer más que tu madre, quien se alegra con tu dicha y sufre más que tu con tu dolor?
What I understand from the intention of this phrase is that God's love is only comparable to the love of a mother. Just as God loves us with our sins and imperfections, so does a mother love her children.
In the same way, I interpret that God gives us the gift of a mother to show us, through her, his infinite love and mercy.
Who can love you more than your mother, who rejoices with your happiness and suffers more than you with your pain?
Being a mother is a wonderful experience without a doubt; but it also implies a great responsibility. It means that you have to watch over and be responsible for the life of another human being, taking into account that every decision you make will not only affect or change your life, but also the life of the other being you are in charge of.
In my personal experience as a mother, the hardest thing has been making decisions that involve the future of my children; even in things as simple as naming them (you know, making sure they didn't suffer from school bullying haha), choosing their pediatrician, their diet, their school and many other things, in which I always questioned if I was doing the right thing and what was best for them.
Entregaba mis preocupaciones y dudas a Dios para que me orientara y guiara por el camino correcto. Desde que empecé a hacer esto de manera tan habitual, sentí un gran alivio y mucha confianza en mi trabajo como madre. No digo que no haya tenido momentos difíciles, sino que ya era capaz de afrontarlos con mayor serenidad.
Son tantas las anécdotas y testimonios que he vivido con respecto a la orientación de Dios en mi vida como madre, que contarlas ameritaría otro post, pero no suelo escribir sobre estas cosas, prefiero que las personas lo evidencien con sus propios ojos.
So in those moments of great anguish, when doubts assailed me and the fear of being wrong paralyzed me, I would turn to the one who can love them much more than me; God.
I would give my worries and doubts to God so that He could guide me on the right path. Since I started doing this on such a regular basis, I felt a great relief and a lot of confidence in my work as a mother. I am not saying that I did not have difficult moments, but that I was able to face them with greater serenity.
There are so many anecdotes and testimonies that I have experienced regarding God's guidance in my life as a mother, that to tell them would merit another post, but I don't usually write about these things, I prefer people to see it with their own eyes.
I loved writing this post and telling a little of my experience as a mother. Thank you for taking the time to read, greetings and blessings.
Todas las fotos son de mi propiedad, en ellas les muestro a mi madre y a mis dos hijos.
