Life Verse

“She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed.” Proverbs 3:18

My daughter rushed into the kitchen one day with her Bible in hand and pronounced she had found her life verse. She began to read the verse from above. I was amazed she knew what a life verse was and that she had claimed one as her own.

We discussed the verse, what it meant, and that the “she” the scripture refers to is actually wisdom. She said she wanted to live her life with those attributes of wisdom guiding her.

From my 14 year old may we be reminded of a phenomenal way to live our days -- being a tree of life to those around us as we fill them with encouragement, joy, and blessings.
