Bible Commentary

Proverbs 3:26

Our confidence comes from God, not from ourselves. He protects us from traps and dangers we cannot even see.

Memory phrase: God is my confidence.

Talk about it: What does it mean to be confident? Where does your confidence come from?

Prayer: God, be my confidence today. Keep my feet from every trap.
