Mothers: Builders of the Faith

Mothers have always played a powerful role in building and shaping the faith of generations. In this series, we’ll look at how God uses the love, strength, and prayers of mothers to lay foundations of faith that last. Whether you’re a mom, a grandmother, or someone shaped by the influence of a godly woman, these messages will remind you of the deep spiritual impact of motherhood and encourage you to keep building lives of faith one heart at a time.

Day 1: Love Is the Foundation of Sacrifice

True sacrifice only means something when it is driven by love. Without love, even the biggest gestures are empty. But when love is present—real, selfless, Christlike love—our actions carry eternal weight. Scripture says love is patient and kind. It bears, believes, hopes, and endures. This love is not just a virtue. It is the foundation of the Christian life.

Think about the quiet acts of love you’ve seen: a mother going without so her kids can eat, a friend praying for someone who has given up. These things may never be seen on a stage, but they shake heaven.

Read: 1 Corinthians 13:1–13

Reflect: Who in your life needs to experience your love through a sacrificial act today? What can you do to show them that love in action?
