Is there one thing that is vital for parenting? God tells us that there is. “As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you,” says the Lord in Isaiah 66:13. “As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love,” Jesus bids his disciples in John 15:9. And when they stray, God longs for all parents to love their children just like that. Mine did.
