Psalm 128, Proverbs 29

 1 How joyful are those who fear the Lord
      all who follow his ways! ...
 3 Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine,
      flourishing within your home.
   Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees
      as they sit around your table.

This reminds me of Isaiah 61:3 -

       ... They will be called oaks of righteousness,
       a planting of the LORD
       for the display of his splendor.

Heavenly Father, please fill me with the joy of your salvation.  Lord, I fear you, and I trust you.  Lord, please plant oaks of righteousness in my family, and use us for the display of your splendor.  I ask in the name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.
