“Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren; The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.” (1 Timothy 5:1-2 KJV)
Mothers are essential to the work of the Lord because they are compassionate, caring, understanding, loving, and full of wisdom. Mothers know how to encourage, provide instructions to young women on how to take care of their families, their bodies, and fulfill their responsibilities at home. Similar to good mothers who reared their God-given children after the admiration of God, mothers help in the church the same way. They are open, supportive, and willing to aid in whatever capacity needed to continue to promote the work of the Lord.
