A Mother Makeover

A billboard advertisement for a local plastic surgeon has the title “Mommy Makeover” with the photo of a woman’s stomach. Plastic surgery is a personal choice for any woman; however, a spiritual makeover is necessary for all mothers regardless of their age or number of children. A physical makeover is temporary, but a spiritual makeover can last throughout eternity. Take a look at the top ten makeovers for spiritual mothers.
