Favorite W Bible verses:
"When pride comes, then comes disgrace but with the humble is wisdom." Proverbs 11:2
"Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid." Proverbs 12:1 (my kids love that this verse has two words that we do not use in our house... it cracks them up)
"Work hard, but not just to please your masters when they are watching. As slaves of Christ, do the will of God with all you heart." Ephesians 6:6

This is the W that we found during L's ABC summer of photography. It is part of the sails on a model sailboat we have sitting on a bookshelf.
