By becoming a Christian, we say we are giving our lives to Christ. If that’s true — if we’ve given our lives to Christ — we’ve given it all. Everything.
And if that’s true, it includes — and boy, is this tough to say as a dad — it includes our very children. They’re his.
No one can take anything, or anyone, from His grip. They can take from ours, but not His.
So watch them sleep, and thank God for them, and know that they’re on loan. He loves them even more than you do. And whatever happens, He’s got the big picture; we don’t.
— Brant Hansen, Unoffendable, p. 121
