Behold, children are a heritage from 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.
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.
*** Psalm 127:3-5 ***

love your thoughts on thankfulness in america the last post and this one....God is so good to continue to show us His grace and goodness in the midst of our complaining! We don't stress about the holiday season here, we love every minute of it. It is not a time to freak out and be stressed, but to enjoy the people around us and to focus on God becoming flesh among us. anyway, i am babbling. know that there are thankful hearts, truly thankful hearts around!
ReplyDeletelove your blog!!!
i love that verse! when we get strange looks cuz we have 4 kids i just say that we have been blessed with a quiver full!
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you!
Thanks. I hope you had a very blessed Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteSomeone told my father-in-law that a quiver full was 5, so he had 5 kids. He has been telling me since my first that it is a good start. lol I am content with how ever many God blesses me with. I get the funny looks all the time. And for some reason, no one can believe that I want more. hmmm go figure, maybe they never read that verse. ;)
Have a very blessed day!
