Proverbs 31:28
"Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her."
Godly mothers are such a blessing. I think a lot of children in this generation take them for granted and don't realize how important they are to God and how important they should be to us. I'm so blessed to have so many godly women and mothers around me to show me how it's supposed to be done once I reach that time in my life. After thinking about these amazing influences in my life and how they have helped to shape me into the woman I am becoming, I felt it was imperative to share with the women and young girls of this world how important it is to be godly women and later in life, godly mothers. There's a difference between being a good mother and a godly mother. Don't get me wrong, being a good mother is wonderful, but your goal should be higher than that. God wants you to include him on every decision you make in life and especially with the children he has blessed you with. Raising your children in the admonition of the Lord is a form of worship as well. Remember, worship is a lifestyle, not a genre of music or and action you do on Sundays.

Mothers are the first ones we meet, know, and begin to love. They are our nurturers. Mothers are like our superheroes. Godly mothers instill Christian values. As I mentioned before, godly mothers train their children in the right way. They teach their children to love God and who God is so that later in life they learn who to truly depend on during hard times. Godly mothers intercede on behalf of their children. Their children respect them and look up to them spiritually. Godly mothers lead by example, in church and out of church. Godly mothers are strong, and not by their own might, but by the strength of God. God acknowledges the works and efforts of our godly mothers and blesses them with peace and courage and strength. 1 Timothy 5:10 says, "and is well known for her good deeds, such as bringing up children, showing hospitality, washing the feet of the saints, helping those in trouble and devoting herself to all kinds of good deeds." In this particular context the scripture is talking about widows but I believe it's also important and applies to godly women and mothers as well. Godly mothers should have all these qualities showing in their life. These are all beautiful traits that should be exemplified their lives. And when she has completed the most privileged task God has bestowed upon her, God will "Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate" Proverbs 31:31.
