This means he fights for us even when we have given up the fight. Our desire to follow him may weaken, but he will never give up or turn his back on us.

Good parenting lives at the intersection of a humble admission of personal powerlessness and a confident rest in the power and grace of God.

Think about this. The One who created and controls the world, the One who is the ultimate definition of what is loving, true, and good, and the One who alone has the power to finally defeat sin has chosen, because of his grace, to wrap his arms of faithful love and protection around you, and he will not let you go. You can take your life off your shoulders because God has placed it on his.
