Proverbs 10:7 – Today’s Verse for March 25, 2025 Tuesday

“The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.“
— Proverbs 10:7 KJV

Reflection on Today's Verse

Have you ever noticed how some people leave a good feeling behind when you think of them? Even years later, when their name comes up, you smile. You remember their kindness, their honesty, their love for God. Those memories feel warm, like a blessing.

But then there are others whose names make your heart heavy. They chose the wrong path. They hurt people. When someone mentions them, people turn quiet or change the subject. No one feels good remembering someone who lived selfishly or caused harm.

This simple verse is a reminder for all of us. It matters how we live. Our lives are like stories we leave behind for others. If we follow Jesus and treat people with love, our memory can inspire and encourage people long after we’re gone.

So think about your own life. What kind of memory do you want to leave behind? The good news is, it’s never too late to start living in a way that blesses others. Every day we have a chance to create memories worth keeping. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Personal Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for reminding me today that my life matters. I want my memory to bless people, not hurt them. Help me follow you closely and treat others with kindness and respect. Show me the parts of my life that I need to change. Give me the courage to turn away from anything that isn’t good or pleasing to you.

Lord, let my life point others toward your goodness, even when I’m not around. Teach me to live simply and sincerely, so that the story I leave behind brings comfort and hope.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
