I am a mother of 5. I have a wonderful husband who loves me. I grew up with an alcoholic Mom and a dad who believed in the big bang. I Believed In God. I felt His Spirit. I Have always craved love and tried so hard to always get it from my mom and Dad even other families. Until a few weeks ago. After starting the study on a virtuous Woman.
My mother just a few weeks ago was saying very mean things to me and really tearing me down. She was drunk as she usually is. I Went home feeling horrible, not understanding why I can't be loved. Then, realizing even though I am here with my children as I am a stay at home mom, that I don't know How to love my children. I was never taught. In fact I realized that I don't even except God's love for me.
Not any more!
I am going to learn His love for me and except it. When reading prov 31 25. Her strength and honor are her clothing. I realized I get my strength in knowing God's word and His love for me. I honor God, My self my mother when I stand up for my belief in God. Tell my mom in a loving manner when she starts on me saying something along the lines of, "Mom I love you and God loves you and me. He would not have you talk to me that way and I won't allow you to treat me that way any more. I am a child of God and I will not be hurt by your sin any more. I am a daughter of the most high...."
I just thought I would share that...
