Parents 'Should Carry Babies Upright'

Mother and child ~ down to the very end this starving mother comforts and cradles her starving child, or a younger sibling.

The Bible teaches us that we are made in God's image. This afternoon while playing some Andrea Bocelli for the grand daughter it came to me that I was wrong to pass by this picture and not comment ~ something ~ anything, so I thought ~ what would I be able to say to let a blind man like Andrea Bocelli know how utterly beautiful this picture actually is ~ and how I pray ~ as many of you must pray ~ that this young woman received the help she so desperately needed, and that all young women in a similar situation can love their young so much that they literally sacrifice their all for their survival.

The wisdom of the African clearly surpasses all understanding ~ we need more of it.

Let's hope that's what you meant.

You picked the right picture for the wrong thing. That was and is a Madonna and Child portrayal ~ even down to the last erg ~ love!

Makes us just a little lower than the angels, and fully in God's image.
