This document provides seven tips for finding the right Bible verse to include on christening invitations. It suggests browsing christening invitation websites, checking christening quotes online, looking up verses directly in the Bible or online, using creative keywords related to babies, exploring passages in the Psalms, and rereading the Gospels. Several potential Bible verse options are presented that are appropriate for christening invitations.

1. Bible Verses For Christening Invitations

2. You're inviting guests to celebrate the first
spiritual event in your child's life. So,
naturally, you're looking for a suitable
Bible verse to add to your baby's
christening invitations. Here are seven
tips to help you find just the right one.

3. 1. Browse christening invitation websites.
Check their samples to see what Bible
verses they feature on their baby
baptism designs. It's possible you might
find what you're looking for right away;
a design you love, with the right
wording and a great Scripture. One
popular verse you will frequently see is,
"every good and perfect gift is from
above", which is found in the Bible in
James 1:17.

4. 2. Check christening quotes. There are
plenty of websites that offer tons of free
quotations and sayings. Look in the
baptism category for Bible verses.
Scrapbooking websites often have
great suggestions for titles, journaling
and quotes in various categories. Plus,
some online invitation companies
include a page of suggested poems,
sayings and Scripture that you can use.

5. 3. Look it up. In the back of most Bibles is
a concordance, which is like an index,
although it is usually not as
comprehensive. If you don't find what
you're looking for there, you can check
an online Scripture search engine, such
as Bible Gateway. There, you can
search by keyword and get a list of all
the verses that contain that word.
But since the Bible does not specifically
mention christening, it can be
challenging to find an appropriate verse
that way. If you look up "baptism", for
example, you will find in 1 Peter 3:21 it
says, "Corresponding to that, baptism
now saves you--not the removal of dirt
from the flesh, but an appeal to God for
a good conscience--through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ."

6. 4. Use creative keywords. Instead of
baptism or christening, look for Bible
verses that include the word baby,
child, born, guide, care, angels or love.
If you do that, you'll find gems like:
* Before I formed you in the womb, I knew
you. Before you were born, I set you
apart. (Jeremiah 1:5)
* I will be your God throughout your
lifetime-until your hair is white with age.
I made you, and I will care for you. I will
carry you along and save you. (Isaiah
46:4)
* I prayed for this child, and the Lord has
granted what I asked of Him ( Samuel
1:27)

7. 5. Explore the Psalms. The book of
Psalms in the Bible contains beautiful
prayers, poems and praise that
illustrate a life dedicated to God. There,
you will find many appropriate verses
that you can use, such as:
* Children are a gift from the Lord, a child
is a reward from Him. (Psalm 127:3)
* You are the One who put me together
inside my mother's body, and I praise
You because of the wonderful way You
created me. Everything You do is
marvelous! Of this I have no doubt.
(Psalm 139:13-14)
* For He will give His angels charge
concerning you, to guard you in all your
ways. (Psalm 91:11)

8. 6. Reread the Gospels. The words and life
of Jesus are a great place to go for
inspiration. Some possible examples of
those Bible verses that would work on
your invitations, include:
* Let the little children come unto Me, for
the kingdom of God belongs to such as
these. (Luke 18:16)
* Whoever welcomes a child in My name,
welcomes Me. (Luke 9:46-48)
* And He took the children in His arms, put
His hands on them and blessed them.
(Mark 10:16)
