Finally we look at mother as a teacher and mentor of her children. Proverbs 31:26 says: “She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.”
A mom teaches by communicating her values and priorities and by being a model that her children can pattern themselves by.
"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
A mother is the primary teacher of the next generation. Proverbs 1:8 says: “Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.”
A mother teaches her daughter about being a godly woman. “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” – Proverbs 31:30
A mother models to her daughter the significant impact of her role as a wife and mother in God’s design of the family.
She models to her son the kind of woman he should marry. Proverbs 31:1 talks about an oracle taught by a mother to her son. She also teaches her son how to honour and appreciate a woman’s responsibilities of being a wife and mom.
"Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God."

Mentoring occurs when a woman is available to teach other women how to love God, love their husbands and love their children.
A successful mother must be committed to God and His Word and not the world.
What kind of legacy will you, as a mother, leave?
