Mothers who know are leaders. In equal partnership with their husbands, they lead a great and eternal organization. These mothers plan for the future of their organization. They plan for missions, temple marriages, and education. They plan for prayer, scripture study, and family home evening. Mothers who know build children into future leaders and are the primary examples of what leaders look like. They do not abandon their plan by succumbing to social pressure and worldly models of parenting.
These wise mothers who know are selective about their own activities and involvement to conserve their limited strength in order to maximize their influence where it matters most.

"Mothers Who Know"
This was an excellent talk.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder! Sometimes in the day to day tasks of motherhood, I forget that it is such a noble and honorable calling. I loved that talk too. Did you hear Elder Uchtdorf on Saturday?? Oh wow, it was amazing.
