A Meditation on Mother’s Day

by Alistair Begg

John 19:25–27
 (ID: 3730)

In the moments before He died, Jesus saw His mother, Mary, standing with John and tenderly commended them to one another’s care. In this Mother’s Day message, Alistair Begg ponders the history and heart of Mary, reminding us that Jesus’ loving and temporal provision for her in this moment is an emblem of a far greater reality—the eternal provision Christ makes for all who believe in Him. With this act of loving grace, Jesus establishes a whole new category, fashioning a family of faith that finds both forgiveness and fellowship in the work of the cross.
