00:00What is the greatest love ever shown by a mother in the Bible?
00:04It is found in Exodus chapter 2.
00:07A mother named Jochebed has a baby boy at a time when the king ordered all baby boys to be
00:13killed.
00:13For three months she hides him.
00:16She risks her own life to keep him alive.
00:19But she cannot hide him forever.
00:21So she does the hardest thing any mother could ever do.
00:25She makes a small basket, places her baby inside, and lets him go on the River Nile.
00:31She does not let go because she stopped loving him.
00:34She lets go because she loves him so much she trusts God to save him.
00:39And God does.
00:40That baby becomes Moses, the man who would save a nation.
00:45That is a mother's love.
00:47Sometimes true love means holding on.
00:49And sometimes it means letting go and trusting God with what you love most.
