I agree. When you look at the risk, the problems with living in that state, and the ultimate costs...
If folks could only focus on that before they get started.
“It is impossible to reason a person out of what he never was reasoned into.”
The light of God is what matters, and the best lesson of all for a child is not to extinguish or grieve that light, but to the contrary keep on endeavoring to embrace it. And parents do very well to live that example out.
Now one feature of this light is that it will forgive; in fact it has a patience beyond any human’s. Because it can see the big picture. A foundation may need decades to rebuild in some cases, but the result may be an imposing castle and worth it.
