When Isaiah was 3 he started biting his nails. It was very distressing for me to watch his little fingers bleed from it. We prayed, we threatened…we won ! Until now, for whatever reason, he has started again. It makes a parent feel helpless when their child develops a habit. I watch it going on. I see that my baby feels compelled to bite or pick at his nails until they are hurt, and I am hurt. I am hurt deep down in my soul, because I can’t MAKE him stop. But GOD can, so when you are done praying about the war and the recession, and all the other big things that you pray about…pray for my baby(i know he is seven), for peace , for strength, and for fingers that are well. thanks.
