Queen of the Home {15}

Good Monday morning, friends!

Are you ready for another week of  raising the future leaders of our country?

May you be encouraged in the high and noble calling of the greatest career in the world - raising your children.  :)


"Christian motherhood means dedicating your entire life in service of others.
It means standing beside your husband, following him,
and investing in the lives of children
whom you hope will both survive you and surpass you.
It means forgoing present satisfaction for eternal reward.
It means investing in the lives of others who may
never fully appreciate your sacrifice
or comprehend the depth of your love.
And it means doing all these things, 
not because you will receive the praise of man - 
for you will not - 
but because God made you to be a woman and a mother,
and there is great contentment
in that Biblical calling."
~ Doug Phillips
