God is our father; we have the right to talk to Him, just the same way we talk to our earthly father and mother.
When God gave us our children, He knew everything about them, including who they will become. He also knew the purpose why he has created each of them.
God, therefore, expects us to always come to Him to gain wisdom and understanding on how to train our children. He expects us to pray for insights to know how to nurture them in order for each of them to fulfill His purpose.
As parents, you should start talking to God about your child/children , even from the womb. Then He will enlighten your mind, teach you and guide you on how to nurture him or her/them as the case may be.
Even God can show us what to do and how to pray when any of these children has gone on another path. He is their maker, He alone knows the solution. And He will surely take charge, only if we trust Him and talk to Him.
As parents, we should not despair. if we listen to God and follow His instructions on how to train our children and how to pray for them, He will sort them out. He is their maker.
