MTP30 – Valuing Heritage

The eye that mocks a father, that scorns an aged mother, will be pecked out by the ravens of the valley, will be eaten by the vultures. (Proverbs 30:17)

Respecting our parents is the first command with promise, outside of commands relating to our relationship with God, this is the first issue that God gives us.  Parents are crucial.  Our whole existence and identity is dependent on them and how we treat our elders is indicative of our we treat other authority figures ending with the Creator Himself.  This is not just a warning of the dire consequences of mistreating our parents, this is a fact of the outcome of not respecting where we are coming from.  Celebrate human heritage today.

For His Name’s Sake

Shalom
