What every Daddy wants every Mommy to know........
First of all, Daddy’s aren’t always going to understand what Mommy’s are going through throughout the day. Therefore we must be in regular communication. Not just talking but also hearing; not just hearing but also listening. Responding calmly with mutual respect, forgiving as quickly as confronting.
Second, Mommy’s forgive us if we don’t say it enough of just how important your role is. Abraham Lincoln was right: “No one is poor who had a godly mother.”
Parenthood, but especially motherhood, is a special, God-given ministry that God has given to all mothers. It is a calling of God, a marvelous opportunity to shape and turn lives toward God. Motherhood is one of the highest, most noble callings and one of the most important responsibilities in life. Almost nothing is more important. Mommy’s are the true Super-models!
Behind nearly every great man of God there was a godly mother. It was so with Moses, with Samuel, with Jesus, etc. Dr. G. Campbell Morgan, the well-known Bible expositor and preacher, had four sons and they all became preachers of the Word. One day at a family reunion, a friend asked one of the sons, "Which Morgan is the greatest preacher?" While the son looked at the father, he quickly replied, "mother!"
Lastly, when we (Daddy and Mommy) realize that having children isn’t about us, but it is rather about God, then the trials and sacrifices of parenting are easier to handle. The issue is no longer how proud my children make me, but how faithful I’ve been to do what God has called me to do.
We must never forget that God has forgiven us, is patient with us, and endures our own failings to an even greater extent than we do for our own children. We must become what were praying for our children to become. For example, If we want our son’s to be men of prayer, we must first become a daddy and mommy of prayer. Mommy’s, know that you are loved.........Blessings
