Proverbs 23:10

Proverbs 23:10

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

Boundary stones marked property lines in ancient Israel. Moving them was a form of theft — a way of taking land from someone who depended on it for survival. The fatherless had no legal protector, making them especially vulnerable to this kind of exploitation. God takes this seriously.

Memory phrase: Protect those with no one.

Talk about it: Who are the people in our world who need protecting most? How can we help them?

Prayer: God, help me never take from those who have less.
