Guideposts for the Spirit: Stories of Love for Mothers

by Julie K. Hogan (editor)

Collected in this volume are over 100 heartwarming stories about the enduring nature of a mother's love. Written for and by mothers, the stories are often warm and tender, sometimes humorous or sad, but always about love--enduring and unconditional, jsut like mother. The majority of the stories are drawn from the archives of Guideposts magazine, long known for its moving, first-person stories. Also included are writings from Sue Monk Kidd, Barbara Bush, Patricia Lorenz, Marjorie Holmes and others. A great idea for Mother's Day!

I enjoyed reading a few pages a day. The readings gave me strength for the day, and reminded me at times the importance of being a Mom, and the lives you touch through the years.

This book is the perfect remedy for a worn-out mom! I have been reading a story or two when I have a minute to myself. I love reading these stories because they remind me how important my job as a mother really is, even if no one else notices my efforts or appreciates my sacrifices. Children will forever remember the lessons their mothers taught them, and this book is proof of that! Reading this book lifts my spirits and inspires me to be a better mother. I love it!
