Family
What does the birth of a child awaken in us?
A new child can make life feel more beautiful, more fragile, and more meaningful all at once. Father Tim reflects on a child as a gift from God and on the opportunity parents have to help that child understand who they are and how deeply they are loved.
All good giving and every perfect gift is from above.James 1:17
Your child is a gift to you and deeply loved by God.
Faith gives parents a way to help children understand that their worth is not based only on what they achieve or how others see them. They are loved, known, and created by God.
