"To Young Mothers"
It's good that the younger women marry,
Bear children and be keepers of the home,
If we would but acknowledge this one saying,
God's word would stand alone.

I know that according to the world's way
And even in our own thinking
This seems foolish and outlandish
That to the bread winner's job we are not linking.
4
But let us stop and consider
What is more important to us now.
God says to first seek His Kingdom
Then these other things would come some how.
4
We just have to trust Him.
And know that his word should in us be.
Remember what He tells us that
Knowing the truth shall make us free.
Titus 2:4,5
1 Timothy 5:14

This poem is not meant to stand in judgment of working mothers for I am not a judge, but rather it was written to support and encourage the young mothers who want to stay home with their children and may feel pressure to do otherwise.
