e is a fun article that is also very practical and biblical on motherhood. I know that in the midst of mothering one can be overwhelmed at times and there can be a grasping for purpose and progress. This article, containing an interview with Holly Ellif , ought to be an encouragement to not grow weary in well doing. Amidst funny stories of her own experiences as a mother, her main point is clearly made:
Motherhood is about eternity. It is not just about this moment. God clearly defines this in Romans 8:28 and 29. That verse where it says God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose.
What is His purpose? For us to be conformed to the image of Christ. Motherhood is one of God’s very best tools for that molding, that conforming in our life

Thanks for posting this Andy. I had forwarded it to Janet last week (although I don’t think she’s read it yet). I like to pass these kinds of things on to her in hopes that they will encourage and edify. I know she doesn’t usually have time to “surf” the internet to find them herself.
Thanks again.

Thank you for mentioning this article in your sermon. It made me curious so I read the whole article and have to agree it makes us examine our devotional approach.
