Proverbs 7:3

Proverbs 7:3

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

Wisdom is meant to be embodied — as natural as the hands we see and the heart that beats inside us. True wisdom is not just known; it is lived.

Memory phrase: Write wisdom on your heart.

Talk about it: What does it mean to have something written on your heart — not just in your head but deep inside you?

Prayer: God, write Your wisdom so deep into my heart that I never forget it.
