Duggars' Life Verses (Part 3/5)

All this week, we're sharing verses that have made a lasting impact on individual members of the Duggar clan.


What about the other Duggar kids? 
Jinger's life verse--or chapter--is Colossians 3 (click here to read). Jana has been impacted by Colossians 3 and also finds encouragement and inspiration through Proverbs 3:5-7.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and depart from evil.
~Proverbs 3:5-7 (NKJV).

Tomorrow, we'll reveal the life verses of John-David, Jill, and Joseph. Have a fabulous day!

Duggars' Life Verses (Part 1/5)

Where do the Duggars find words of encouragement? Each of the older family members has a favorite Bible verse that provides comfort and guidance through good times and bad. Last month, we posted Michelle's life verse, 2 Corinthians 12:9. (Click here to read.)

All this week, we'll be sharing the life verses of some of the other Duggars, so stay tuned!

Josh is the eldest son of Jim Bob and Michelle and the father of the first two grand-Duggars. He and his wife, Anna, share the same life verse, Matthew 6:33.

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
~Matthew 6:33, NKJV

Michelle's Life Verse

If you've seen "19 Kids and Counting," you've probably noticed that Michelle never raises her voice. Ever. Several of our readers have asked how in the world she stays so calm. After all, raising nineteen well-behaved, godly children is no easy task! When the going gets rough and she needs a bit of encouragement, Michelle remembers her life verse, 2 Corinthians 12:9.  

And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
2 Corinthians 12:9, NKJV

This verse has helped Michelle through the trials and tribulations of motherhood. It saved her sanity back when she had five children under age five and still encourages her to this day. 

Do you have a life verse? We would love to hear it!
