Nascimento de bebê
Cada bebê que nasce é uma dádiva de Deus. A Bíblia celebra o nascimento como obra das mãos do Criador, que forma cada criança no ventre com amor e propósito.
Formados por Deus
Deus tece cada bebê no ventre materno. Antes mesmo de nascer, somos conhecidos e amados pelo Criador de todas as coisas.
For it was you who created my inward parts;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I will praise you
because I have been remarkably and wondrously made. ,
Your works are wondrous,
and I know this very well.
My bones were not hidden from you
when I was made in secret,
when I was formed in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw me when I was formless;
all my days were written in your book and planned
before a single one of them began.
I chose you before I formed you in the womb;
I set you apart before you were born.
I appointed you a prophet to the nations.
It was you who brought me out of the womb,
making me secure at my mother’s breast.
Just as you don’t know the path of the wind,
or how bones develop in the womb of a pregnant woman,
so also you don’t know the work of God who makes everything.
"Will I bring a baby to the point of birth
and not deliver it? "
says the Lord;
"or will I who deliver, close the womb? "
says your God.
Bênção e presente
Os filhos são herança do Senhor. Cada bebê é uma boa dádiva que vem do alto, do Pai das luzes, motivo de alegria e gratidão.
Sons are indeed a heritage from the Lord,
offspring, a reward.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
I prayed for this boy, and since the Lord gave me what I asked him for,
When a woman is in labor, she has painbecause her time has come. But when she has given birth to a child,she no longer remembers the suffering because of the joy that a person has been born into the world.
Acolher as crianças
Jesus acolheu as crianças e as abençoou. O Senhor ama cada pequenino e reserva para eles o Reino dos céus.
Jesus said, "Leave the little children alone, and don’t try to keep them from coming to me, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.",
After taking them in his arms, he laid his hands on them and blessed them.
