Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. Psalm 127:3 The word heritage in this verse means “inheritance, or property”. Your children are God’s property, gifted to you for their time here on this earth. What are you doing with that gift? We would all say …
Stepping Into Your Place
