"Doesn't he know we love him no matter what?"

That's the question God asks concerning each one of us.

There have been many times in my life when I refused to accept God's love simply because I didn't feel like I deserved it.
It wasn't a matter of pride; it was a matter of shame.
Maybe your son is going through the same thing.

I pray that God will open his heart to your love and to His.
Our Lord makes all things new.

An astute and tear-producing response. You have a great heart, TexasCowboy! Many thanks for the kind thoughts and prayers.
