Unity

Proverbs 17:6
Children's children are the crown of old men; 
and the glory of children are their fathers.

This weeks Proverb was a little sad for me.
Dwelling on the joy of children to parents and grandparents,
while waiting on the Lord in this area was not easy.

But the thought can be bigger than just the treasure of children (which they are)
with a focus on family unity and the need to strengthen and encourage each other.

Families all around are in disrepair.
Broken homes.
Rebellious children.
Selfish parents.
A mobile society.

God established the family from the beginning in Genesis 1 and 2.
He designed the support structure of a family to meet 
emotional,
spiritual,
physical,
and even financial needs.

I want to be a child who is a crown - 
a testimony to God and therefore a good reflection on my parents and grandparents.
