On the Independence of Children

When children grow up and leave their parents’ home, it is inevitable that a sense of emptiness will arise in the hearts of the parents, for humanity is created with inherent weakness. Yet, God, in His compassion, has given four duties to ensure that the hearts of believers remain ever filled with purpose and vitality. Through these duties, parents may find meaning in their daily lives and fill the emptiness with the strength of faith. In the land of rest promised by God, the joyful times shared with their children will once again be restored. As they await that day, believers walk forward in the present.
