I admit to being a
little sad as I write this post. Today
we begin memorizing our tenth verse in the ‘Bible Memorization Project ~ The
Sequel’. So why am I sad? It is a blessing and a joy to undertake a
challenge with a group of sisters, knowing that we all have the same goal in
mind. It goes beyond just being
accountable to each other as we commit God’s Word to memory. I think we learn more about each other as we
read the verses posted on the blog and on Facebook that speak to each of our own
hearts. I will miss it.
The good news is that we
do have one more verse. Even if you
haven’t memorized a single verse, I challenge you – just do this one! What do
you have to loose? In all my days I don’t think I have ever heard anyone
express regret over memorizing scripture!
It says in Hebrew’s 4:12
“For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any
double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and
spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart”. I want His living Word in me! I know you do
too!
For those of you who
have completed the challenge of ten verses or more, Arlene and I are ready to
hear you recite them. You have two weeks
to do this. We will be available on
Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings and on Tuesdays, of course. The last day to recite will be Tuesday, May
29th. The Bible Memorization
Brunch will be the following Tuesday, June 5th. (For the mother’s,
there will be childcare.)
You guys are awesome!!
Let’s hear those verses!!
