Mark 10:16
And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
The act of blessing children is a powerful expression of love, acceptance, and affirmation. When we hold and bless those who are young, we are not just showing affection; we are planting seeds of confidence, faith, and security. This gesture of blessing reminds us of the importance of speaking life and encouragement into the hearts of children, affirming their worth and potential. Such acts of love create a foundation upon which children can grow, knowing they are valued and cherished. This blessing is more than words; it is an investment in their future, a promise of support and guidance. By blessing our children, we instill in them a sense of belonging and purpose, encouraging them to pursue their unique path with confidence. Let us be intentional in our words and actions, blessing the young with love that empowers and inspires. May we commit to nurturing a generation that is secure in their identity, confident in their abilities, and grounded in love and faith.
