Grace in the Pursuit of Excellence

blog1 "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." -Proverbs 2:6

Our world will constantly offer many different comparisons and ideas as to how we should be parenting, instructing, training, mothering, and loving our children. In the midst of the overwhelming opinions from Pinterest, family members, and other moms, we must remember to strive for God's standards, not the world's standards.

While it is wonderful to shoot for excellence (and our family is extremely idealistic), each of your children will be unique, and will have their own different set of beautiful qualities. There will not be one single definition of excellence that fits every one of your intricately designed children. God is the source of wisdom, intelligence, and excellence, and it is through your faithfulness to Him that He will reveal what is best for your home and your family. The podcast below is for all of the sweet mamas out there who have ever thought, "maybe I'm just not doing enough." Remember to give yourself grace today.
