Minute Meditations From The Popes

She watches over household matters and eats not her food in idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed.
-Prov 31:27-28

Reflection:
The rearing and education of children should be the joint task of the father and mother, and there is certainly progress to be made in order that men should take their part in this task to a greater degree.
But it is only too clear that the role of the woman remains an essential one.
-Pope Paul VI

Prayer:
O Lord, now when the roles of parents are so often in confusion, help me to give of myself. Let me never do the minimum necessary, but rather always do the maximum.
