High school BIG TRUTH:
Wisdom Chooses To Guard The Heart
Bible Verse: Proverbs 4:23
Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.
Big Ideas
- Wisdom protects us from folly by constantly calling us to hold fast to what is true.
- Wisdom knows what draws the heart away and chooses to reject what is false.
- Wisdom is a decision to search for God and aim our heart to follow His paths.
Memorize Proverbs 4:23 with your son or daughter this week.
- Review the verse every day to help your son or daughter learn it.
- Discuss with your son or daughter ways you have aimed your heart. Help them make a list of some practical ways to guard their hearts. Share with them some of the ways you’ve used to guard your heart.
- Meet with your student to discuss ways that he or she can pursue God’s truth. Help your student evaluate his or her life to see how well they reject the lies of the world and embrace the truth of God.
