A mother's worth isn't measured by having a partner. Settling for an unhealthy relationship teaches your daughter to do the same. The speaker draws on faith and personal experience to argue that real companionship comes from Christ, not from fear of being alone.
To the mothers, you are worth more than the company of just anybody. Amen. Overcome the fear and the loneliness that whispers you have to settle. Your daughter is watching how you value yourself. And I'm speaking as a woman. I know that sometimes I talk to a lot of single women and they say, well, I just— I knew he wasn't right for me, but I just wanted to have somebody. I had to have somebody. And so you're bringing these men into your homes and into your lives, and then they're wrecking your lives and the lives of your children. Yes. We have had lots of reports where men have come in and they've killed people's children because of past relationships or whatever. So I'm just saying, the discernment— you've got to, you've got to overcome your loneliness. You've got to overcome this, I just want to be with somebody so I won't be alone. You're never alone in Christ. And I'm— people say, well, you're married. I wasn't always married. That's right. But you've got to be able to overcome loneliness. You've got to be able to overcome these inadequacies and these, uh, whatever you grew up with. We've got to overcome.
