baby dedication

Baby dedications are Biblically essential as they represent a heartfelt commitment of parents to raise their children following God's teachings. An example of this is found in 1 Samuel 1 where Hannah dedicates her son Samuel to the Lord, saying, "For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition that I made to him. Therefore I have lent him to the Lord. As long as he lives, he is lent to the Lord." Similarly, Jesus' presentation in the temple exemplifies the act of dedicating a child to God. This practice aligns with the biblical principle of guiding children in the ways of the Lord, fostering a foundation of faith from an early age.
