Mom Is the Heart of the Home

The following was taken from a book “Parenting Principals from the Heart of a Pediatrician”. I bought this book for quite sometime now and I haven’t been able to complete the entire book. I have been encouraged by this section specially the title, and I hope it does for you mommies out there.
So here goes:

It has been well said, “The father is the head of the house, the mother is the heart of the house.” Moms hold it all together. They keep the emotional balance.

A mother’s heart is what transforms a house into a home. As we enter adulthood, we often contemplate the memories of home. I doubt we think how the bricks were laid, or how the paint was chipped around the window seal, or where the stains were upon the carpet. But no matter what kind of home you were raised in, your thoughts are emotional. To me, memories of home bring forth feelings of comfort, security, love and peace. For others who did not have the privilege of being raised in a godly home, they may have feelings rising within them of hatred, pain, bitterness, wrath, and injustice. Mothers, God has given you the role to make the difference in the memories of your children.

Daisy Little Dancer

daisy little dancerDaisy loved to dance. More than anything else she wanted to be a famous ballet dancer. Every night she dreamed of performing in front of a real audience. But today was Daisy’s first lesson at her new dancing school. As she walked into the huge hall, she felt a little worried.

This is her current favorite book. She even sleeps with it, and I have been reading the same book to her repeatedly for the past few days. She woke up this morning saying “mommy can you read”. She loves it when I replace Daisy’s name to hers. I enjoy the reading moment with my little helper at home.

Book Review

February 22nd, 2008 No comments

I’m currently reading “PROFILES of SUCCESS” book. Amazing book that will change the way you look at life. This book is a collection of viewpoints from many respectable best-selling authors such as Zig Ziglar, John Mason and many others, combine their wealth of wisdom in this one of a kind collection. All of them share a common faith in God which has allowed them to impact the culture in wonderful ways.

The following input was written by Guy Carlson

Does Wealth = success?

That depends on how you define success! Wealth that really counts is stored in heaven. Our lifetime is but a moment on the scale of eternity. What we accumulate here stays here. Not everyone is destined to be wealthy. God has placed men and women at all levels of affluence to touch the live of others. At the very least, however, God promises that all of our needs will be met. Beyond that, it is up to His pleasure and our faithfulness.

Sucess for the whole man encompasses the total of his being. Are you healthy? Do you have a good relationship with your wife/husband? Are your children a blessing? Are you fulfilling your God-given destiny? Are you helping others to achieve their destiny? What have you done with what you have been given? Are you pleasing God in everything you do?

Our name may never appear on the list of Forbes 500, but it is another list that is most important. When the race is finished and you stand before the judge, the successful scorecard will read something like this: “Your name has been written in the Book Of Life. Well done good and faithful servant. Enter into your reward.”
