that God is not yet discouraged of man."

that God is not yet discouraged of man."

Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one's youth.
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them.
~ Psalms 127:4-5 (NKJV)
Living Messages
I think it lovely to look into the face of a child and see the image of both father and mother, melded into one. It testifies to the privilege in co-operating with our Maker to create the wonder of life.
I think it lovely to look into the face of a child of God and see the image of Jesus, contained in the light of being born a new creation.
I think it loveliest of all when a child of man becomes a child of God and becomes the message of all that is good in the world.
Father in Heaven, thank You for the father of my children. Please bless him. Please enable him and fulfill his desire to be a good father—like You.
"Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see."
