Pastor talked about mothers this morning. He focused on young mothers or mothers of young children. I wonder if the benefits of motherhood are so short lived that once we are grown we tend to forget. Mothers of young children are just starting out in life. Grandmothers have memories but little else. They spend a lot of time reminiscing about days past when being a mother mattered.
How can grandma find importance in life? I think that she needs to find it outside of her family. Find a place to serve others. Find a way to help others. Use what you learned to instruct others who have no mother to call on. Do something that gives you a reason to get out of bed in the morning.
The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. But rocking the cradle only lasts a short time. Then what?
