Preparing a Noble Life

I've been reading more of The Incomparable Christ, following along and listening to Nancy Leigh DeMoss as she uses the outline of the book for further teaching on ReviveOurHearts.com. Chapter 4 is about the childhood of Jesus, chapter 5 his youth. 

If you're a mom with children at home, I think her discussion the past couple of days would be an encouragement to you. 

Sharing an excerpt with you today from chapter 5, "The Youth of Christ."
"The influence, example, and teaching of His mother doubtless played an important part in His development. Everything indicates that she was one of those rare women whose glory it is to prepare a noble life, losing themselves in it, and desiring to be glorified only in its usefulness. Mary’s song reveals her as a devout, high-souled woman, fervently patriotic and a student of Scripture. Her song is patterned on that of an older saintly woman of the Old Testament, Hannah."
- J. Oswald Sanders, The Incomparable Christ
