Although God the Father is understandably the image now emphasized in scripture since Jesus gave the Our Father, the Bible also provides motherly images of God to more fully describe God, whom words can never fully describe. Isaiah 66:10-14a includes: "As a mother comforts her son, so will I comfort you." This image stood out to me from seeing my wife comforting our newborn baby daughter these last six days since she's been born.
Peace.
