Q. Looking for Bible scriptures, especially to go with the song In My Arms song by Plumb...which is about how a child is safe in their parents arms or a person is safe in God's arms, no matter what is going wrong all around them :) Also the ones about how children are created by God, for God, etc etc...

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous - how well I know it.

Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!

Do I send Thank You cards for baby dedication gifts?
JennaJ
We dedicated our 8 month baby girl to the Lord on Sunday...this is a christian dedication sometimes called a "dry baptism" anyhow, we had a luncheon "reception" party at our home and most people brought cards with money or a small gift like an outfit....
My mom and I are all about mailing thank you cards however, she mentioned for a christening/dedciation it's not customary to send thank you cards, as it is a religous event. Anyone have any experience with this?
Answer
We are dedicating my 5 month old son in September. I would definitely send Thank You notes out. I am not sure of the custom, but I think you should always send thank you notes out after you receive a gift.
