As a fairly new parent, I tend to relate most things to parenting. I am always telling my two year old not to touch the hot stove. He can’t understand why he shouldn’t. Someday, he will know why and he will probably be thankful I told him not to. I think it’s the same with us, we are God’s children, and He, being the perfect parent He is, tells us to do some things and not to do other things for our protection and happiness. Someday, we will understand all the whys. Our ability to reason is just in it’s beginning stages.
