               Saying that, the Holy Spirit made me recall the words of

             Zephaniah chapter 3 verse 17, which I remembered.



               “The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He

             who think proudly of their sons and daughters. As a parent,
             we always think of our sons and daughters proudly. There

             is a no parent who would be ashamed or think less of their
             offspring. Even though a child may leave a wound in their
