How patient are you when children or youth misbehave? Even as we desire and work to protect children from harm, it can be hard not to let our anger or disappointment drive our response, especially when we feel stressed. Read this devotion to learn more about the importance of pausing to ask the Holy Spirit for help. He longs to help us grow, so we can reflect the love of Christ to the children and youth we serve.
