📖 31-Day Proverbs Challenge — Day 29 

Today’s Reading: Proverbs 29 

Welcome to Day 29. Proverbs 29 highlights the importance of teachability, the danger of stubbornness, the influence of leadership, and the contrast between fearing people and trusting God. It also speaks to justice, restraint, and the long‑term outcomes of wise versus foolish living. 

As you read, let the chapter speak directly to your responses, your leadership, and your trust. 

✨ Step 1 — Identify Five Things That Stand Out 

As you read Proverbs 29, write down five things that catch your attention. These might be:  

• A phrase about correction, discipline, or teachability  

• A warning about anger, pride, or stubbornness  

• A reminder about justice, fairness, or righteous leadership  

• A contrast between fearing people and trusting the Lord  

• Anything that feels personal, timely, or revealing 

Let the chapter highlight what you need to see today.
