I am not sure how often it occurs, but probably thousands of times each month a child is born that the parents are unable to keep, do not want, or the parents die. To me this is quite sad. However, since committing to Christ I have learned that God certainly can take a sad situation and turn it into a good and joyful one.

Thanks in part to the entertainment industry from even the 1950’s, the image of what a father is, or should be, has often been tainted by the non-biblical attitude of the world. However, if we honestly look around as guided by the Holy Spirit, we will find some great examples. Then, there is also a more sure, life-giving resource.
Rewards are not material, seeking and satisfying your belief will lead you to your reward.
