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 Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of sons is their fathers.
17 for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.
25 though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD is the stay of his hand.
4 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.
5 Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him, bless his name! [ (Psalms 100:6) For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures for ever, and his faithfulness to all generations. ]
Força e fidelidade

14 They are planted in the house of the LORD, they flourish in the courts of our God.15 They still bring forth fruit in old age, they are ever full of sap and green, [ (Psalms 92:16) to show that the LORD is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. ]
31 A hoary head is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life.
4 even to your old age I am He, and to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save.
30 Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted;31 but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
9 "Only take heed, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; make them known to your children and your children's children--
