Encouraging Sunday #11
Florida Jetty
A mother's love looks beyond the horizon of today
and sees the possibilities of tomorrow.
Quite honestly, this is actually often hard to do. When you're up to your elbows in runny noses, diapers and trying to settle a sibling conflict, the last thing you're thinking of, is 'tomorrow's possibilities'!
(Unless you're possibly considering a vacation!)
However, it is really important to remember that what we as moms are doing today, will impact the future.
Whenever I encounter a problem in our homeschooling, I always remind myself to look at the big picture.
If they're not getting a concept right now, it's OK, as long as they get it by the time they're 20!
Be encouraged in your mothering today!
Psalm 145:8-13
"The Lord is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.
The Lord is good to all;
he has compassion on all he has made.
All you have made will praise you, O Lord;
your saints will extol you.
They will tell of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might,
so that all men may know of your mighty acts
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures through all generations.
The Lord is faithful to all his promises
and loving toward all he has made."
