Agradecimento pela família
Agradecer pela família é reconhecer a bênção mais preciosa que Deus nos concede. Os filhos são herança do Senhor — cada membro da família é presente divino a ser celebrado.
Sons are indeed a heritage from the Lord,
offspring, a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the sons born in one’s youth.
Happy is the man who has filled his quiver with them.
They will never be put to shame
when they speak with their enemies at the city gate.
The Forgiving God
My soul, bless the Lord,
and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
My soul, bless the Lord,
and do not forget all his benefits.
We will not hide them from their children,
but will tell a future generation
the praiseworthy acts of the Lord,
his might, and the wondrous works
he has performed.
Grandchildren are the crown of the elderly,
and the pride of children is their fathers.
I prayed for this boy, and since the Lord gave me what I asked him for,
Thanksgiving and Prayer
I give thanks to my God for every remembrance of you,
How can we thank God for you in return for all the joy we experience before our God because of you,
Ascribe to the Lord, families of the peoples,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
Indeed, we have all received grace upon grace from his fullness,
The women said to Naomi, "Blessed be the Lord, who has not left you without a family redeemer today. May his name become well known in Israel. He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. Indeed, your daughter-in-law, who loves you and is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him."
The living, only the living can thank you,
as I do today;
a father will make your faithfulness known to children.
