Every baby starts life as a little savage. He is completely selfish and self-centered. He wants what he wants when he wants it: his bottle, his mother's attention, his playmate's toys, his uncle's watch, or whatever. Deny him these and he seethes with rage and aggressiveness which would be murderous were he not so helpless. He's dirty, he has no morals, no knowledge, no developed skills. This means that all children, not just certain children but all children, are born delinquent. If permitted to continue in their self-centered world of infancy, given free reign to their impulsive actions to satisfy each want, every child would grow up a criminal, a thief, a killer, a rapist.
Matt,
ReplyDeleteMy chest hurts by how much this video affected me. What a beautiful reminder to cherish every day God gives to us and to our children. Also an amazing story of how this couple used their sons short life to glorify God rather than be bitter that he lives such a short life. Thanks for sharing.
Incredible how we all get caught up in the hussle and bussle of life. That just reminded me of why we are here ! Thank you for sharing that beautiful message. I will pass it along to touch others as it has touched me.
