Let...

“Let…”
Blessings folk!
We all often get some form of the question…
”what do you want for your birthday/christmas/etc.?”
I know what I want.
Godly, God-fearing progeny.
Such is often received as a non-answer answer, but it is true.
The Proverbist agrees…
Pro 23:24-25
The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice;
he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him.
Let your father and mother be glad;
let her who bore you rejoice.
ESV
The Proverbist is telling his son these truths.
A wise son brings great rejoicing to the father.
To the biological father.
To the Father Most High.
It is a decision of the son.
Note the word “let”.
Let the rejoicing come.
Let your parents be glad.
How?
We have seen throughout the Proverbs.
Seek the Lord.
Seek His Wisdom.
Seek His Understanding.
Seek His Ways.
Seek.
Let.
