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.
6 Children's children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD's love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children's children —
25 I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.
4 One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.
5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through 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.
14 They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,15 proclaiming, "The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him."
31 Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained in the way of righteousness.
4 Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
9 Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them fade from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.
