“A Mother’s Legacy: Faith Passed Down”

2 Timothy 1:5

“I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.”

There’s something sacred about a mother’s prayers. The unseen tears. The quiet encouragement. The steady presence.

When Paul wrote to Timothy, he didn’t just praise his faith—he honored the women who poured it into him. Lois and Eunice never stood on a stage. They weren’t apostles or evangelists. But their faith shaped one.

This Mother’s Day, we pause to reflect on the legacy we’ve inherited and the one we’re building. Whether you’re a biological mom, a bonus mom, a spiritual mom, or a woman who simply chooses to nurture others—you are seen. You are vital. And your faith matters.

Reflection:

• Who helped plant the seeds of faith in your life?

• How are you intentionally passing on that faith today?

• What would you want your children—or spiritual children—to say about your legacy?

Supporting Scriptures:

• Proverbs 31:28 – “Her children arise and call her blessed...”

• Titus 2:3–5 – Encouragement to teach the younger women.

• Isaiah 66:13 – “As a mother comforts her child…”

A Prayer for Mothers:

Lord, thank You for the women who have loved us, prayed for us, and gently led us closer to You. Strengthen every mother reading this today. Let her see the value of her calling—even in the ordinary moments. May her legacy be one of faith, grace, and eternal impact. Amen.

With grace,
Erica
