Raising Children In God's Will (113) Chapter 2. Children's Love and Parents' Love Section 4. Love of Parents
1. The Heart of Parents' Love - 3
If any of you has lost a child, you don't need any explanation to understand how painful it is.
Even the dull mind of fallen people is like this, so how painful it must have been for God, whose heart is pure and who is the original body of the substantial world. (127-35)
The heart of parents makes them beat and loose their own body, sacrifice themselves and even die for the sake of their children. (50-282)
Parents feel ashamed of themselves and resent themselves. They would say, "Forgive me for not being able to do much as parents." (69-192)
When parents love their children, do they write down everything they bought for the children and say, "It cost this much." when parents love children, they want to give them more than a prince or princess of the world has, and they are sorry that they cannot give enough.
Parents are always thinking, "I want to give more, better things to my children." Do you understand? That is why we are fond of our parents love. You must know this.
Even when they have given, they still feel it was inadequate. Even after they have loved their children, they feel it is not enough and want to love more. Because of this, the nature of parents' love is everlasting love. Do you understand? That is the traditional motivation of the start of love. (60-84)
