To the mothers that hold the nation together
To the mothers that hold the nation together,Every year on Mothers Day, we celebrate you with flowers, cards and brunch. But today, I want to offer something more meaningful than a gift or a meal: I want to remind you that America needs you now more than ever.In a moment when our culture feels fractured, our families are under pressure and our future is uncertain, its mothers who hold the line. Its mothers who hold homes and hold hearts together. And its mothers who quietly, faithfully lead with the kind of strength this nation cannot survive without.While the headlines celebrate celebrity CEOs or political powerhouses, I believe the most profound leadership in America is happening quietly, around kitchen tables, in carpool lines and beside hospital beds. Its happening through you.MOTHERHOOD DOES NOT FIT SO WELL IN A CULTURE THAT VALUES SELF-CARE OVER SERVICE. AND THAT'S A PROBLEMThink about it: every day, you make a thousand small but powerful decisions for your family. Every lunch packed, every schedule coordinated, every hard conversation navigated. You manage conflicts, negotiate compromises, anticipate needs, and carry the weight of other peoples futures in your hands. And you do it not for applause, not for titles, but out of love.Thats not weakness. Thats strength under control. Thats servant leadership in action.Ive seen it firsthand in my own home. My wife doesnt lead with a spotlight; she leads with steadfastness. She doesnt chase recognition; she shoulders responsibility. And through her daily sacrifices, both seen and unseen, our family flourishes.THE WORLDS TOUGHEST, YET MOST REWARDING JOB: MOMS ARE HEROESHer leadership has shaped character, cultivated faith and built resilience in our children far more effectively than any platform or podium ever could.You may not always feel it, but the influence you carry is immeasurable. In a world obsessed with platform and prestige, your leadership reminds us of something better: real leadership isnt measured by followers or influence, its measured by the flourishing of those entrusted to your care.Jesus said it plainly: "Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant" (Matthew 20:26).CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINIONAnd youre living that kind of greatness every day. Through humility, perseverance and sacrificial love, you are building lives, shaping hearts and raising up the next generation. Youre building the kind of homes and the kind of people that America needs right now.Imagine if more leaders in politics, business, education and the church led like you do: not hoarding power, but pouring it out; not chasing the spotlight, but shouldering responsibility; not seeking applause, but sowing a legacy.Today, I simply want to say: thank you. Thank you for leading with grit, grace and selfless love. Thank you for persevering in the unseen moments. Thank you for reminding us that the leadership that bends low to lift others up is the leadership that leaves the deepest mark on the world.This Mothers Day, know that your leadership matters. Our nation depends on it. You are seen. You are celebrated. And you are making an impact far beyond what you can see.Keep going. America needs leaders like you.CLICK HERE TO READ MORE DR. KENT INGLE
