Proverbs 11:2

Proverbs 11:2

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

Pride is the elevation of self above God and others — and it reliably precedes disgrace. Lowliness (humility) is the posture that allows wisdom to take root, because the humble person remains teachable.

Memory phrase: Pride brings shame.

Talk about it: What happens when someone always thinks they are best?

Prayer: God, help me stay humble and teachable.
