Proverbs 4:24

Proverbs 4:24

Little Bible — for children and parents · Growth Figures · © Growth Figures. All rights reserved.

The words we speak reflect and shape the condition of our hearts. Guarding our heart means guarding what we say.

Memory phrase: I speak kind and honest words.

Talk about it: Can you think of words that twist the truth or hurt people? How do those words make you feel?

Prayer: God, help me put away unkind and twisted words and speak only what is good.
