This is copied from "busymama431." I thought this was very encouraging, and helpful!
I believe that Proverbs 31 is more than just a poetic pie-in-the-sky dream. It is God's pattern for glorious motherhood. It says "strength and dignity are her clothing" and that "she smiles at the days to come" and that her "children rise up and call her blessed." This is the opposite of the frazzled, exhaused, stressed-out, frustrated motherhood of our day. God desires to take an ordinary mom and transform her into a radiant, set-apart, joyful mother of children. Our job is not to try to become supermoms in our own strength. Rather out job is to lay our lives before Him without reserve and trust him with every detail of our sacred calling. Remember, faithful is He who calls you, who also will do it." (1 Thess. 5:24) Leslie Ludy
