I copied this from a friend, but I loved it so much and found it so inspiring that I just had to share. She is talking about our role as mothers.
"My job is to recognize the amazing and unique way they've (my children) been created and train them to passionately honor and serve their Creator and Savior. It doesn't come by osmosis, nor by passive, powerless Christianity....parents we have to BE the people we desire our children to become!"
I love being a stay at home Mom!! Another friend has a thread going on her facebook page about being upset that someone said staying at home with your kids isn't a hard job. It is a hard job!!!! But oh my, it is so rewarding!! I love that I have the privilege to spend my entire day at home with my wonderful, God-given blessing!! I love that I get to be so involved in her education, because I am the one teaching her. Yes, it is exhausting and frustrating at times, but all jobs are.
So to all my SAHM friends, Keep up the good work!!! And take a break every now and then...you DESERVE it!!!!
I just needed to whisper to your tender heart ...
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your heart in my quiet corner...
I am praying tonight for beautiful, beautiful you...
Jesus cups close... and holds through the pain.
All my love...
All's grace,
Ann
