Motherhood

I am so overwhelmed with joy to be a mother.  I feel I am a better person for having been allowed to create life with my husband, and to watch these two children of mine grow up to be such wonderful people.   The connection to God overwhelms me as I think of His love for us, and it is only a fraction of the love we have for our children.  My mind then drifts to the love between husband and wife and how it is a foreshadowing of Heaven.  When my marriage and family life is at its best, I truly feel like Heaven is on Earth.  Don't you?

To create is divine, and I am touched that God allows us to participate in that creation.  He gives us the capacity to create life.  He gives us the talents to create gadgets.  He gives us the talents to serve Him by serving others.  Isn't that what life is about?  I am at my best when my life is in service to others.

Creation is awesome.  Motherhood is awesome.  Being a wife is awesome.  Service to others is awesome.  God's trust in us is even more awesome.  Don't you agree?



Peace and talk to you again soon,

Eileen
