God uses the picture of a mother’s comfort to reveal His own heart of compassion and strength. A mother’s gentle touch can calm fears, heal hurts, and bring peace to a restless child. Yet that gentleness is not weakness—it is a strength clothed in tenderness. Consider Jochebed, the mother of Moses (Exodus 2:1–10). In a time of danger, she displayed both courage and gentleness. She protected her baby, trusted God’s plan, and placed Moses in a basket on the Nile. Her gentle strength raised a deliverer who would lead Israel out of slavery.
