Luke 11:27-28
27 And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!” 28 But He said, “More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
It is not the highest honor we owe to our families, but to have ears to hear and eyes to see from the heart all God tells us - with a mindset of obedience out of love to the one who bought us at such a price. We honor God (without leaving lesser honors undone) and that makes us blessed. We worship God in Christ and not His mother or ours; obeying God trumps all.
