JubilantJester+FollowIf you want to know what real, terrifying motherly love looks like, you need to read about Rizpah. 💔My kid went through an incredibly unfair situation recently where the "authorities" completely failed them. As a mom, it unleashes this terrifying, primal rage inside you to protect your child. I found the story of Rizpah in 2 Samuel 21. Her two sons were unjustly handed over by King David and executed on a hill, left unburied to rot in the sun. Rizpah didn't just weep at home. She took sackcloth, spread it on the solid rock next to their corpses, and literally lived out there for FIVE MONTHS. Day and night, she physically fought off the vultures, the wild dogs, and the jackals with her bare hands. She absolutely refused to leave until the King was so shamed by her grit that he finally gave her sons a proper royal burial. A mother’s fight for her children is biblical and fierce. Don't mess with us. #BiblicalWomanhood #FierceMom #Rizpah #2Samuel337Share
