Pop-Pops Pride

Those who mock the poor insult their Maker;
     those who rejoice at the misfortune of others will be punished.

Grandchildren are the crowning glory of the aged;
     parents[a] are the pride of their children.


Verse 5

See Proverbs 14:31. God cares about poor people. He does not want them to suffer. He wants us to help them.

Verse 6

This is how God wants families to behave. Grandparents should be proud of their grandchildren. Children should be proud of their parents. However, evil behavior prevents this. See Proverbs 10:1. If we are evil, then we bring troubles to our families.


The first proverb tells us how much God, our Creator, loves the poor, the helpless, and those without status or wealth.

Verse 6 explains how God intended families to work. Sadly, many children today look up to people who are drunkards, adulterers, or irresponsible gamblers. Sometimes, parents face the pain of having a child addicted to drugs. Our world is broken, and we all need a Savior.

Let me ask you: Are you lucky enough to live in a family where children love their parents and grandparents, and parents take pride in their children? If so, thank God for your blessings and find ways to make your family even stronger.

If not, pray for your family to be healed. Also, seek support from a caring Christian Church community. God wants to be a loving Father to you. When the Church functions as it should, its members become like sisters and brothers to each other.
