Printable Scripture Ring for Kids

Giving children the gift of scripture is the single most important thing we can do for them. All things that happen to us in life have a scripture to go with them. I find that not only comforting but awe-inspiring.

God - through his infallible Word, the Bible - gave us advice, comfort, and peace for every situation in our lives. Sharing that with our children is a COMMAND. Do you remember how much I love my scripture ring and gifting one to friends? Right now I know a few precious little ones who are facing trying times, and I wanted to gift them a ring of scripture, too.

Why Hiding Scripture in Their Hearts Matters

First, I wanted to share a convicting story with you.

My youngest child graduated from our homeschool last May. Throughout his first 18 years we filled him with scripture. When he was confirmed our church presented him with a beautiful Bible, and in that Bible my husband and I (along with other adults important in his life) highlighted verses. We signed our names by the verses so he knew who they were important to.

During my son’s first week away at college he was doing a devotion and texted me the picture above - his Bible with a verse from Zephaniah I had underlined for him. I whispered a prayer to God, thanking Him for directing my son to that devotional and verse - during a time in his life when he needed it so much.

The Lord your God is in your midst,
    a mighty one who will save;
he will rejoice over you with gladness;
    he will quiet you by his love;
he will exult over you with loud singing.

Zephaniah 3:17

(Can I tell you how much I LOVED that texted me that picture? I may have been a puddle of tears for the next hour or so. That image of God exulting over us with loud singing is beautiful. )

I also text him a verse that is important to me each day. Scripture keeps us connected and focused on TRUTH. As he is out in “the world” it arms him and protects him. This brings me comfort and peace.

Discipling our children is the most important thing we can do.
