Ponderizing Parenting
I have been working on my patience as a mom. My little girls have such sweet, innocent spirits and I don't want to break them by yelling at them all day long. I want to try to always have the spirit with me, even when they have dumped all my q-tips out and covered them with soap :). I heard a quote somewhere that "It takes 5 minutes to clean up spilled milk, but a lot longer to heal a broken heart". I am totally summarizing there and could be way off, but you get what I mean! Whenever I do lose my patience I immediately regret it and know that it did nothing but hurt and not help.
Last week I did my first ponderizing patience scripture you can see here.
This week the scripture I chose is:
Moroni 7:45
And charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
I love this scripture for more than just parenting. This will help me be a better wife! This will help me be a better friend, sister, daughter, and just person in general.
Also I like how "charity" is female :)
What scripture are you ponderizing this week?
