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.
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine
On the sides of thy house:
Thy children as young olive plants
Round about thy table.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.
May the Lord bless thee out of Zion;
And mayest thou see the prosperity of Jerusalem
All the days of thy life.
A Psalm of David.
Bless the Lord, O my soul.
O Lord my God, thou art very great;
Thou hast clothed thyself with praise and honor:
Who dost robe thyself with light as with a garment;
Spreading out the heaven as a curtain.
We are become a reproach to our neighbors,
A scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
Children’s children are the crown of old men;
And their fathers are the glory of children.
The faithful has the whole world full of wealth;
But the faithless not even a farthing.
For this child I prayed; and the Lord has given me my request that I asked of him.
Give to the Lord, ye families of the nations,
Give to the Lord glory and strength.
And the women said to Naomi, Blessed is the Lord, who has not suffered a redeemer to fail thee this day, even to make thy name famous in Israel. And he shall be to thee a restorer of thy soul, and one to cherish thy old age; for thy daughter-in-law which has loved thee, who is better to thee than seven sons, has born him.
The living shall bless thee, as I also do: for from this day shall I beget children, who shall declare thy righteousness,
