Aniversário de criança
O aniversário de uma criança é momento de celebrar o presente precioso que Deus deu. Cada criança é formada e conhecida por Deus desde antes de nascer.
For You created my innermost parts;
You wove me in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks to You, because I am awesomely and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from You
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully formed in the depths of the earth;
Your eyes have seen my formless substance;
And in Your book were written
All the days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.
How precious also are Your thoughts for me, God!
How vast is the sum of them!
This is the day which the Lord has made;
Let’s rejoice and be glad in it.
So teach us to number our days,
That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.
I have leaned on You since my birth;
You are He who took me from my mother’s womb;
My praise is continually of You.
One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the Lord
And to meditate in His temple.
Yet You are He who brought me forth from the womb;
You made me trust when upon my mother’s breasts.
I was cast upon You from birth;
You have been my God from my mother’s womb.
For this boy I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my request which I asked of Him.
When I was a son to my father,
Tender and the only son in the sight of my mother,
He taught me and said to me,
"Let your heart take hold of my words;
Keep my commandments and live;
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!
Now the Child continued to grow and to become strong, increasing in wisdom; and the favor of God was upon Him.
