My role as mother is to raise my child in such a way that glorifies God and fulfills His purpose for my child's life.
My role as mother is not about my happiness, convenience, comfort, or pride.
My role as mother is to sacrifice my body, my time, my energy, and my emotions.
My role as mother means not acting out of my woundedness but rather act in such a way that it's all about my child and his relationship to God.
My role as mother is a God ordained calling. It is an honor, a gift, and a blessing. It will further mold me, sharpen me, and increase my trust in, and reliance on, the Lord.
I will never be the perfect mother. I will make mistakes. But, with the Lord as my strength and my foundation, I will always love, cherish, discipline, motivate, teach, and guide my child for his good and God's glory.
