Just a Mom

 

A woman once fretted over the usefulness of her life.
She feared she was wasting her potential
being a devoted wife & mother.
She wondered if the time & energy she invested in her
husband & children would make a difference.

At times she got discouraged because to much of what
she did, seemed to go unnoticed & unappreciated.
"Is it worth it!" she often wondered.
"Is there something better that
I could be doing with my time?"

It was during one of these moments of questioning
that she heard the still small voice of her Heavenly Father
speak to her heart.  "You are a wife & mother
because that is what I have called you to be.
Much of what you do is hidden from the public eye.

But I notice.

Most of what you give is done without remuneration.

But I am your reward.

Your husband cannot be the man I have called him to be
without your support. Your influence upon him is greater
then you think and more powerful than you will ever know.
I bless him through your service
and I honor him through your love.

Your children are precious to me,
even more precious then they are to you.
I have entrusted them to your care.
What you invest in them is an offering to me.

You may never be in the public spotlight.
But your obedience shines as a bright light before me.
Continue on, remember you are my servant.
Do all to please me.
