"Give her the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates. (Proverbs 31:31) For a Christian woman, motherhood is the subtle art of building a house in grace: 'The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands' (Prov. 14:1). Each day's work is significant, for it contributes toward the long-term plan. Each nail helps a house stand in a storm. But motherhood isn't a simple formula. Building a home--childbirth, education, discipline--requires holy joy and a love of beauty. The mother who fears God does not fear the future"--Back cover.
