Motherhood: an Eternal Partnership with Him

“'I know deep down inside I am doing God’s work. I know that my motherhood is an eternal partnership with Him. '

“Mothers, cherish that role that is so uniquely yours and for which heaven itself sends angels to watch over you and your little ones. Yours is the work of salvation, and therefore you will be magnified, compensated, made more than you are, better than you are, better than you’ve ever been.

He is blessing you & He will bless you. Rely on Him, rely on Him heavily. Rely on Him forever. And press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope.”

-Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

I felt the truthfulness & power of Elder Holland's words as I listened to them, and then as the tears began to well in my eyes. I feel so grateful to my Father in Heaven for the blessing He has given me to watch over & nurture His sweet child. I am eternally grateful.
