“IN YOUR CORNER”

 

When everyone else steps out on you, most often, momma is still hanging with you and in your corner. When no one else sees any good in you, or they can’t see pat your mistakes, there is momma seeing nothing but the good qualities in you and the potential to rise above your feats.  

As Jesus hung on the cross, He had been forsaken by all others. His core disciples had all forsook Him, just as He said they would. His body is nearing death but there is one that is there, sticking it out with Him as long as she can. Jesus’ precious mother, Mary, she is there at the foot of the cross with John.  

In this scene, we see a child’s love for His mother, and we also see a mothers matchless love for her Son. When His own people turned on Him, His disciples forsook Him, and God the Father had forsaken Him due to our sin on His back, there kneeled Mary, in the corner of her Son till the very end.  

John 19:25—27 25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! 27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.”
