Because of the gospel -- the news about what Jesus did on the cross to save sinners -- mothers who make Christ their treasure can rejoice in their work as God works in them.

The greatest obstruction to our joy in God is not a lack of time.

God has called us to something vastly bigger than our happiness or that of our children.

If we want to give grace to our children, then first we must be willing to receive it ourselves from God.

Through the grace shown to us in the gospel, there is something distinctly Christlike about a mother's love for her child.

When your eyes are fixed on the horizon of eternity, it affects your vision for motherhood.

In the polls, over 80% support the right to die and have done for the last 25 years. Even 80% of practising Catholics and Protestants support it, plus 76% of Church Times readers.

If it were in my power, I would be wiser; but a newly felt power carries me off in spite of myself; love leads me one way, my understanding another.

Being single is not as bad as everyone likes to make it seem!
