Parents wring their hands when they watch their children suffer because of their disobedience. Nevertheless, they love their children and continually look for better ways to “get through.” God experiences the same thing in His eternal campaign to bring His Children to maturity.

I always think of this scripture when considering the process of raising children. “By long forbearing is the prince persuaded and a soft tongue breaks the bone.” [Prov. 25:15]

Hang in there, parents. Be consistent with your love, correction, and prayers. Better days are ahead.
