Bible Verses for Single Parents

Being a single parent can be overwhelming, tiring and frustrating especially for those who have more than one child. Fulfilling the roles of both father and mother requires double the effort in confronting problems which would drain your energy and deprive you of having time for yourself.

It's a tough job, but you love your kids so much that you're willing to sacrifice and not give up on them. Things would be a lot easier if only you have a partner who can help out. On that part, you have to trust God who knows what's best for you.

At this point, however, you have to hold on tighter to the Lord for strength to fulfill your life mission of raising your children well. Your situation is the cross Jesus said you have to bear while following Him (Matthew 16:24). Below are encouraging Bible verses to help you carry that cross.
