Early training in godly wisdom creates a foundation that endures throughout life.
The instruction we receive in our formative years shapes the trajectory of our entire lives. When children are taught to walk in God's ways, these principles become ingrained in their character. This verse reminds us of the lasting impact of godly education and the responsibility to pass wisdom to the next generation.
Apply This Today
