Precious in His sight

Pr. 22 [The Message]

I learned this song when I was in Sunday School several hundred years ago …

Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world.
Red and yellow black and white, they are PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT.
Jesus loves the little children of the world.

It’s possible that only grandparents can TRULY understand the value of the process and end result of child-bearing and raising. Their perspective is seasoned and appreciative. They watch how a child enters the world, watch him/her being raised, and are able to apply the necessary love and understanding when that child stumbles a bit. Above all, they embrace the VALUE of that child and will move heaven and earth to see them succeed.

They also understand that the child has overwhelming value while they are yet in the womb.

An interesting observance: I have yet to see a pro-abortion grandparent picketing and demonstrating. I don’t believe they exist.
