Yeah.

And, and there is, again, you know, some validity to [sighs] fruits, right? Jesus said, "You will know them by their fruits." And so our, our children and the way that they make decisions and the way that they interact with the world around them, um, out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

So hear me balance all of the things, you know? And I'm not, I'm not, um, like overriding what Jesus and the Word of God are telling us.

But I also don't want a mother to think [laughs] that, you know, her children's independent decisions are a reflection on her own personal walk and discipleship.

And, and I encourage women that I work with all the time to remember that you're not called to control, you're called to faithfulness, and there does come a point where your children have free will and free agency, and they are free to make the decisions they want to make.

And we've heard this 100 times before.

You'll never find a better parent than God himself, and His children in the Garden chose Satan over Him.

Mm.
