Proverbs 15:20

Proverbs 15:20

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

Wisdom is relational — it is expressed in honouring parents. A child who grows in wisdom is a gift to their father and brings gladness. A fool, however, treats their mother with contempt — this is a mark of deep character failure. Wisdom and family honour go together.

Memory phrase: Wisdom honours your parents.

Talk about it: How does being wise make your parents happy?

Prayer: God, help me honour my parents today.
