Ciara considers her young son Future Zahir Wilburn as a blessing from God.

On her Instagram account (@ciara), the singer shared a black and white photo of her holding up her smiling son. "Children are a blessing from the Lord; the fruit of the womb a reward. Psalms 127:3," the singer writes.

Future is not the only guy in her life that Ciara is grateful for though. Her Christmas became even more special since her boyfriend and National Football League (NFL) player Russell Wilson celebrated the occasion with her.

"Kinda like had the best Christmas ever.. Theme: love, happiness, gratefulness, and family. Nothing can amount to the value of those gifts," gushes Ciara.

Wilson has proven to be a good example for Ciara. When the Christian football star got into a relationship with the singer, he inspired her to fulfill the vow of celibacy, and the two are now waiting for marriage before engaging in sex.

"I knew God had brought me into her life to bless her and for her to bless me, and to bless so many people with the impact that she has and I have," Wilson told his pastor.

In turn, Ciara is teaching her son about Jesus Christ.

During an earlier interview with PEOPLE, Ciara said that little Future is still having difficulty pronouncing certain things, and one of these is the name "Jesus."

"The other day we were saying, 'Thank you, Jesus' and I would say, 'Say, thank you!' And he would say, 'Tank you!' I'd say, 'Je-sus' and he'd say, 'Yee-yus,'" she shared. "It is so sweet!"

Even though Wilson and Ciara have no marriage plans yet, Ciara said they have already discussed raising a family together. The two actually share the same desire to raise a large family.

"I definitely (want more children), yes. (Russell and I) discuss a lot of things ... a lot of good things," she teased.
