Parenting by Faith - Psalm 127

Published: Feb. 12, 2017, 10 a.m.

b"Unless the Lord builds the house,\\n those who build it labor in vain.\\nUnless the Lord watches over the city,\\n the watchman stays awake in vain.\\nIt is in vain that you rise up early\\n and go late to rest,\\neating the bread of anxious toil;\\n for he gives to his beloved sleep.\\nBehold, children are a heritage from the Lord,\\n the fruit of the womb a reward.\\nLike arrows in the hand of a warrior\\n are the children[a] of one's youth.\\nBlessed is the man\\n who fills his quiver with them!\\nHe shall not be put to shame\\n when he speaks with his enemies in the gate."
