A mother's love

A relative of our friend whose premature baby is in a coma. They are not a close friend of mine but it seems that my heart crumpled and I feel like a mother to the baby. I found out that, it seems I have empathized the feeling of the mother watching her  child sick and helpless and can't even touch or hug him. How painful could it be! I then started bringing back the memories of my brother who passed away because of gun shot and tried to figure out, how was my mothers feeling at that moment? I realized it was really different from what we felt. As I imagined it and somehow have emphasized the pain, huh...it was really hard and only when we become a parent or mother we'll realize that it's not easy as what we think it was. A mother's love is incomparable and very difficult to dig in. Only when we become mother we'll understand that why of so many failures or sins we have done against them they can still love us? That is because a mother's love is immeasurable. In connection with all these realizations, I remember a phrase in a bible, I just can't remember the verse and the exact word but it says something like " when we listen to our mother, the Lord will bless us and we will have an abundant life and if we obey our father the Lord will forgive some of our sins because they were given high authority by the Lord". I'm just trying to figure out, maybe when we become parents-God will bless us with a superpower to love and to endure pain thus to be able to bring up a good child.
