Isn’t that a wonderful gift? His presence is a difference-maker. I only wish I could retain that truth more in my conscious awareness 24/7.

Yay! Glad you’re in, Brenda! Who knew there was a 6-verse chapter in Isaiah. ha. But it’s packed full. I’ll keep posting details here as we release them at Do Not Depart.

I’ve heard such good things about the Beth Moore memory process. Good for you, Ellen! My memory is definitely worse as I age too. But at least we’re still trying, right? 🙂 The way I see it, even if we don’t retain everything word for word, we’re still spending time with the Lord and his Word digs deeper and stays longer than our memory anyway.

I believe that was Isaiah also. I keep coming back to Isaiah for some reason…. Good stuff! Thanks for your encouragement, Floyd.

Yes, it’s definitely a power-packed chapter. Not many short ones like this in the prophets. ha. I know the chapter divisions are all man-made anyway, but it’s still nice to find one they divided like this. 🙂

The season may not be right for you for this one, Dolly; there will always be more down the road when the time is right. Psalm 27 has become one of my go-to chapters in my head these days. I just love it and use it over and over!

I know exactly what you mean about the translation dilemma, Debbie! I felt that way for awhile too. So I finally just decided I’d go with ESV by default so I would no longer have to decide each time. ha. Unless I feel a strong pull to choose another version. But I do still hear previous versions in my head if it’s a familiar passage, so if I want to memorize those, it’s essentially re-memorizing. Oh well. I could have worse problems, right? 🙂

One of the beautiful things about this challenge is that it’s going to be only one verse per week, and it’s only 6 weeks. Hopefully that will make it doable for those like you who are in a busy stage of life. So glad you’re interested, Melody!

So excited to know you’ll be joining us, Natalie! I’ll post more details over the next few Mondays.
