Dia dos avós
Os avós são tesouros vivos de sabedoria e fé. A Bíblia honra os mais velhos e celebra a transmissão de fé entre gerações — dos avós aos netos e destes aos que virão.
A bênção dos avós
A coroa dos velhos são os filhos dos filhos. A misericórdia de Deus é de geração em geração sobre os que o temem.
Grandchildren are the crown of the old,
And the glory of sons is their fathers.
But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting for those who fear Him,
And His justice to the children’s children,
I have been young and now I am old,
Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
Or his descendants begging for bread.
One generation will praise Your works to another,
And will declare Your mighty acts.
For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting
And His faithfulness is to all generations.
Força e fidelidade
Mesmo na velhice darão frutos. Os cabelos brancos são coroa de glória. Deus não abandona seus filhos na idade avançada.
They will still yield fruit in advanced age;
They will be full of sap and very green,
To declare that the Lord is just;
He is my rock, and there is no malice in Him.
A gray head is a crown of glory;
It is found in the way of righteousness.
Even to your old age I will be the same,
And even to yourgraying years I will carry you!
I have done it, and I will bear you;
And I will carry you and I will save you.
Though youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous young men stumble badly,
Yet those who wait for the Lord
Will gain new strength;
They will mount up with wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.
"Only be careful for yourself and watch over your soul diligently, so that you do not forget the things which your eyes have seen and they do not depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your sons and your grandsons.
