Encouragement for today

I have started reading "God's Devotional Book For Women" and came across this quote...When Mother Teresa received her nobel prize she was asked, "What can we do to promote world peace?" She replied, "Go home and love your family."
I thought this was so encouraging. When you are a mom sometimes it is easy to feel like what you do is not important and doesn't matter. You clean up and the kids mess the house up again, you do the dishes and they dirty up more, you make up the beds and the next day you do it again. What we as mom do is more than cleaning up after our kids. We have the opportunity to impact our family's life for the better. I encourage you to love your kids and husband more than ever before and make a difference in your little corner of the world.
Proverbs 3:3 "Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart."
