Proverbs 6:32

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

Sin is ultimately self-destructive. The person who violates God's design for relationships harms their own soul above all else.

Memory phrase: Wrong choices always hurt the one who makes them.

Talk about it: How can a wrong choice hurt the person who makes it the most?

Prayer: God, help me make choices that protect my soul, not ones that damage it.
