Proverbs 19:21

Proverbs 19:21

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

Human planning is vast and creative, but it is subject to failure, change, and divine overrule. God's counsel — His purposes, plans, and decrees — is the only thing that is guaranteed to stand. This is not fatalism but reassurance: the universe is not at the mercy of human schemes. God's word will accomplish what He intends. Our best response is to align our plans with His.

Memory phrase: God's plans always stand.

Talk about it: Why is God's plan the only one that always comes true?

Prayer: God, help me trust Your plans more than my own.
