Every woman has an exploding heart today.
Some hearts explode with joy in being blessed with a newborn, while others with desperation from longing to have a child of their own.
Some hearts explode with gratefulness they have all their children, while others with deep sorrow from losing and missing a child.
Some hearts explode with appreciation of having a husband to help balance motherhood, while others with the struggling stress of being a single mom.
Some hearts explode with gratitude in being able to celebrate their mom with a hug or phone call, while others with sadness in missing their mom today.
Some hearts explode with encouragement from their mom being their biggest cheerleader in life, while others with loneliness from feeling abandoned by their mother.
Today is a day that so many hearts explode with much joy, sweetness, and celebrations….while so many hearts also explode with much sorrow, pain, and sadness. And personally, my heart explodes with both.
God celebrates with us and also comfort us. He smiles with the joyful and mourns with the broken-hearted. God sees every exploding heart with every emotion it’s exploding with. He laughs with the joyful hearted and cries with the grieving hearted. He sees our heart. He holds it and kisses it with comfort.
Whatever emotions your heart is exploding with today, we celebrate all women…and always remember the women who could use a little extra love to get through the sad reminders of days like today called Mother’s Day.
