A Family Blessing:
"By wisdom is a house built, by understanding is it made firm; and by knowledge are its rooms filled with every precious and pleasing possession." (Proverb' s 24.3-4) I recognize Lord, that unless you build the house, they labor in vain who build it. I entrust to you each family. How your inspired word gives inspiration and encouragement:
"Happy are you who fear the Lord, who walk in his ways! For you shall eat the fruit of your handiwork; happy shall you be, and favored. Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine in the recesses of your home; Your children like olive plants around your table. Behold, how good it is, and how pleasant, where brethren dwell at one! It is as when the precious ointment upon the head runs down over the beard, the beard of Aaron, till it runs down upon the collar of his robe. It is a dew like that of Hermon, which comes down upon the mountains of Zion; for there the Lord has pronounced his blessing, life forever.
(Scriptures taken from NAB - Catholic Publishers, Inc. 1971)
