It's not only about what is taught, but what is caught.

Wow! This was a powerful statement that one of the leaders of our bible study said the other night. So much of what we learn from Jesus is not only about what he taught, but also what we observe or what we "catch" from him. As a mother, this statement is really convicting for me. Is my life a good example for my children? Am I teaching them what it's like to be a woman of God? Am I showing them patience, kindness, and forgiveness. Do I show them in all that I do that "love thy neighbor" is one of the greatest commandment? As I think about that, I have to admit I have some work to do. Being a mom is one HUGE resposibility! But I love EVERY minute of it!
