I need divine leading in mothering. And beyond wisdom for every day practical decision making, I need to be led back to truth: truth about who I am in light of what Christ has done for me, truth about who God is and and what he is like, and truth about the proper place of this temporary task in light of eternity . What comfort in the promise of his present help in shepherding. Thanks be to God he doesn't leave "those who have young" to their own devices.
