Genesis 1:28a
God blessed them; and God said to them,
Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth
Psalm 127:3-5
Behold, children are a gift of 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.
How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them; They will not be ashamed
When they speak with their enemies at the gate.
Psalm 138:1-2
I will give You thanks with all my heart;
I will sing praises to You before the gods.
I will bow down toward Your holy temple
And give thanks to Your name for Your
Lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have magnified Your word
according to all Your name.
Psalm 139:13-16
For You formed my inward parts:
You wove me in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully
and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the depths of the
earth;
Your eyes have seen my unformed
substance;
And in Your book were all written
The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.
Proverbs 31:28a
Her children rise up and bless her
