The Bible says, "She will be saved through childbearing." I always wondered what that meant. A woman who has kids can be saved from depression. Saved from loneliness. Saved by striving to be a better person. Saved from selfishness by loving another more then she loved herself.
Children help us to grow up. I always have said until a person has a kid, they remain a kid. When you are in charge of caring for and loving a tiny human, your heart expands. You finally feel whole love for the first time. You feel excitement that God entrusted you with such a precious gift. You want nothing more then to make them the happiest child ever. You never get tired of hearing their cute laugh and seeing their smile. All you care about now is them. Nothing else matters. You are transfixed by their happy little eyes. Your sole desire is to help them become strong and healthy.
And then one day they run away. 😪 But at least you get to mold them and shape them for awhile. I am so excited to usher in another new soul. He or she will be wonderful to have. Thank you God!
