Psalms 144:12
That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:
144:12. God’s blessing works wonders for a people.
That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth. What the young men are the older men will be. If in their opening manhood they are dwarfed, they will never get over it. But when we see them developed in holiness, what joy we have of them!
That our daughters may be as comer stones, polished after the similitude of a palace. Daughters unite families as cornerstones join walls together, and they adorn them as polished stones garnish the structure into which they are built.
