Bible Commentary

Proverbs 5:15

God calls us to find contentment, satisfaction, and joy in what He has given us — especially in our family and home — rather than chasing what belongs to others.

Memory phrase: I am happy and thankful for what God gives me.

Talk about it: What are the good things God has given you right at home?

Prayer: God, help me be truly happy and thankful for the good things You have given me and my family.
