This is a blog that I have created for my 5 grandchildren. I have a daily Scripture verse or two along with comments and questions. Hope this encourages young people to read in their Bible every day and to meditate on God's Word.

Read Proverbs 11:22 This is a funny verse. It shows is a word picture that is totally unexpected. You expect to see a pretty earring in a girl's ear, but our verse shows us a picture of a gold ring in a pig's snout! That is totally unexpected! You never expect to see a beautiful ring in an ugly pig's nose! Which brings us to the second part of the verse. Just like you never expect to see a gold ring in a pig's snout, you never expect to see a pretty girl not being a proper young lady. You never expect to see a girl telling a lie. You never expect to see a girl being loud and noisy. You never expect to see a girl embarrassing her parents. You don't expect to see a girl acting like a boy. These things just aren't expected - just like you don't expect to see a pig with a gold ring in its nose. Girls: think and act right. Don't act silly or rude or nasty or mean. Don't act out of place like a gold ring in a pig's snout!
