God's blessings!

Psalm 127:3-5



3 Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD,

The fruit of the womb is a reward.

4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,

So are the children of one’s youth.

5 Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;

They shall not be ashamed,

But shall speak with their enemies in the gate.



Today many folks consider children a headache. To be honest we all have days with our kids that are not good. But how many days are they such a joy to have in our lives!!! I know for me the good out weighs the bad by a wide margin. Look at the verses for today. Children are a heritage and a reward from God....wow have you considered that recently? Arrows in a warriors hand brought excitement to him and our children should do the same for us. I read recently from a writer who said when we have the arrows in our hands we are responsible for the direction we are pointing them! That is very true and gives us something to think about! Verse 5 tells us that when we have many children we are happy! Think of folks who have many children and raised them in the Lord. I can picture a few right now....and Gos is telling the truth...they were happy. They may not have had all the material things but they had each other and were a family. They kept God a priority and it always brought a smile to my face to be around them!



So have you thanked God lately for blessing you with children, if not now would be the time!
