Meditations for New Parents, New Edition

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This thirty-day collection of prayerful meditations, inspiring quotes, and guiding Scripture helps new parents explore what happens when fallible, fumbling adults have their first baby--a child who proceeds to revolutionize their world. Parenting is a "sacred ministry of reproducing love," and a "God-ordained vocation," say authors and parents Gerald and Sara Wenger Shenk. Through endless nights feeding or comforting a distraught baby, new parents learn to sacrifice for their children. The Shenks look at how children draw security from parents placing their trust in the One who has promised presence and love, and explore how all new parents experience emotions ranging from adoration and deep gratitude to anger and impatience. Intended for both parents, Meditations for New Parents portrays how God is also an ever-watchful and loving parent, giving new parents confidence and strength to carry on.
