The BEST Blessing Jar Scriptures to Include in Your Jar!

Looking for a fun family activity or meaningful DIY gift? Consider making a blessings jar. It’s an easy way to remind yourself of the good in your life and all that God has promised you.

It’s also a unique way to stay in the Word on a daily basis.

How To Make a Blessings Jar

I know I’m not the only one who needs to be reminded of God’s promises and blessings. Life is hard! We need all need encouragement.

So for this DIY blessings jar, I decided to write down scriptures and place them in the jar. Whenever I need a reminder or pick me up, I grab a piece of paper and read the scripture.

It immediately encourages me and allows me to meditate on God’s Word throughout the day.

I think this type of jar would make a wonderful DIY gift for a friend or a great fun family activity. Or do this as a family. Try sharing the scripture verse every night at dinner.

So how do you make a blessings jar?

Simply find a jar around your house or a local thrift store and add some fun decorations.

Then write down scriptures on pieces of colorful paper and place in jar.

You can find the 15 scriptures I added to our jar below.
