As always, we must persuade her with love and we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts. Jesus gave even His life to love us.

The father of that child, whoever he is, must also give until it hurts.”

As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts...”
