A Mother's Split Decision

1 Kings 3:16-28

There is no doubt that Solomon was the key player in this scripture.  We read how Solomon  executed the wisdom that God gave him by making a judgment call that returned a baby to his mother.

But there were two other characters that should be noted as well, the two mothers. These two mothers were harlots; we know them today as prostitutes. 

Before we start judging these women because of their lifestyles, let me say none of us are perfect. We all have sin and come short of the glory. There was none perfect, but the man who died on the cross, but got up with all power. 

Romans 3:23-24 tells us “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus” (KJV).

Mothers quit trying to be perfect and rely on God to lead and direct you as you raise your children.  The scripture says, “Trust in the Lord God with all of your heart and lean not to your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KVJ).

Dear God,
I thank you for your GRACE and MERCY. I am so glad that I can come to you for forgiveness because you died on Calvary for me. Thank you for shedding your blood for me. 

In Jesus Name,
Amen!
