Second only to God’s most intimate connection with you and I, the relationship between a mother and her baby may potentially be the strongest bond on the face of the earth. Speaking the Words of the Lord, the Prophet Isaiah instructs us that God’s Love for us far surpasses that of a mother for her child:
“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!” (Isaiah 49:15 NIV)
Consider this; “When pregnant, the cells of the baby migrate into the mother’s bloodstream and then circle back into the baby, it’s called ‘fetal-maternal microchimerism’. For 41 weeks, the cells circulate and merge backwards and forwards, and after the baby is born, many of these cells stay in the mother’s body, leaving a permanent imprint in the mother’s tissues, bones, brain, and skin, and often stay there for decades. Every single child a mother has afterwards will leave a similar imprint on her body, too.” (Heart Prints, October 21, 2021). Even the National Institutes of Health, a government organization, agrees that there is something to this amazing symbiotic relationship.
However, not every mother is able to comprehend this amazing relationship. It is for this reason that Hills and Hollers Ministries has discerned a need to make ministry to these Moms- of all ages- the primary focus of our organization. We help to illuminate the most wonderful relationship of God, Mother and Child!
