Proverbs 16:2

Proverbs 16:2

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

Self-deception is one of the most dangerous spiritual conditions. People naturally judge themselves favourably, but God's assessment penetrates beyond behaviour to the spirit — the inner motive and character. This is a call to honest self-examination before God.

Memory phrase: God sees all truth.

Talk about it: Why can we not always trust what we think about ourselves?

Prayer: God, show me the truth about my heart.
