Today is Mother’s Day and I woke up thinking about my mother. I remembered Proverbs 31, “Who can find a virtuous woman?” I can answer that question very quickly. It was my mother!
Mothers have a special role to play. Often, they get no recognition, but it can be the best job, and it can be the hardest job. It can be tiresome, and it can be refreshing. It can be fulfilling and also worrisome. There is no “one size fits all” to being a mother. There is no instruction manual. However, there is a guide, and it is found in Proverbs 22:6, “Train up a child in the way he should go. When he is old, he will not depart from it.”
My mother filled all the roles I have mentioned. I strive to not depart from her teachings.
