How can I do it?

A result of Mother's Day - no doubt - I have been thinking, praying, fretting, about how to be a better mother. This may seem a little basic, but it was a good reminder for me. I had just been thinking about it and I walked into my sister in-law's room and saw this on her wall:

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7


It's a good thing to remember in any relationship. All together it is a good passage, pretty familiar... Taken piece by piece it is much more challenging and hits a little closer to home.
