Children: A Gift from the Lord
“Behold, children are a gift of the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one’s youth.” Psalm 127:3-4
For those blessed with children, we know the joy comes with challenges. Parenting is never perfect. Many of us carry regrets — wondering if we could have done better, even when we were present.
Yet Scripture reminds us that even our perfect Heavenly Father has imperfect children. If God extends grace to us, how much more should we extend grace to one another?
When someone comes repentant, may we remember our own imperfections and quickly forgive — just as we long to be forgiven. Reconciliation is a beautiful gift of the gospel.
Dear Father,
You are perfect; we are not. Forgive our failures as parents and as Your children. Give us tender hearts full of grace and love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Church family, let’s walk in forgiveness and hope this week.
Have a blessed week!
