Robert Jones wrote today about the feelings of guilt that moms often seem to feel.
"The guilt you feel may be distorted guilt. We may wrongly place
ourselves under a law we erect: 'Good mothers should do X, Y, or Z,'
even though X, Y, or Z may go beyond what God’s Word commands. I think
of my friend—a good mom by any fair standard—who believed that all good
moms should take their kids to the library three times a week. Sometimes
those false standards come from outside of us—the ideals of your church
or small group, your mother’s model, your mother-in-law’s advice, or
the latest book or blog from your favorite Christian counselor."
