Children Quotes

Only existers suffer harm.

We need to repent of our sin for not loving our children. Spend some time in repentance and read God’s Word and reading books about motherhood.

Repent and find a mature woman who enjoys her role as a mother to encourage you and hold you accountable to this period of your life.
