Birth & Breastfeeding Resources 

  As one whom his mother comforts so shall I (God) comfort you in Jerusalem. Isaiah 66:11                                                           

 Along the bank of the of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither nor will their fruit fail. They will bear fruit every month, because water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food and their leaves for medicine. Ezekiel 47:12
