There are no time limits to being a mother. No age where you suddenly set your children aside, no moment where you stop considering the effect of your decisions on their lives, and no second you wake up and your heart doesn’t feel like it’s walking outside your body.
Being a mother is a lifestyle, not a chapter in your life’s book. It’s who you are, a non-negotiable fact, and the most fulfilling and influential thing you’ll ever be. Being a mother is irreplaceable to the ones God gave you.
I pray daily that I don’t fall short in that one area of my life, that I’m not careless or reckless with the hearts of my children. I have faith that everything else will work out the way He sees fit and trust in whatever that means.
“As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you.” Isaiah 66:13
