Children are a blessing from God. We can see this in many Bible verses. In Genesis, God says, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it.” (Genesis 1:28) Children are a way of fulfilling this commandment. Psalm 127:3 says, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is his reward.” These verses tell us that children are a gift from God and are worth cherishing. Children can teach us about life, love, and humility.
