When facing estrangement from an adult child, we realize quickly that there’s no pain like “Kid pain”. No one can hurt us like our children can. One key to surviving with our sanity is surrender! God knows the pain we feel. When we surrender our children to God we can be sure that God is willing and able to do his work in their lives, (without our meddling) . Surrender them, and leave them with Him. This means surrender the desired outcome, surrender your motives, surrender your need to be right, surrender control, surrender your pain. Your children need a healthy YOU, when God brings them back!
God is a restoring God! Let Him do what he does best! Surrender and trust. Find rest for your soul!
