Proverbs 19:3

Proverbs 19:3

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

One of Scripture's most searching observations: when a person's foolish decisions destroy their life, they turn around and are angry at God. Their own choices have perverted their way, but their heart blames the LORD. This is the anatomy of pride — refusing to own our own wrongdoing and projecting blame upward. Repentance begins by seeing our own part clearly.

Memory phrase: Own your bad choices.

Talk about it: Who is really to blame when bad choices go wrong?

Prayer: God, help me never blame You for my own wrong choices.
