In reply to Beth. Thanks, Beth. Memorizing doesn't always come easily to this tired brain. ha. But God provides lessons for me through it anyway. :)

Memorizing Scripture is something I’m working on, Lisa. I love your tireless efforts to provide a challenge and “handles” for gripping these God-given truths in the day to day.

In reply to Liz. I agree with you, Liz: I often want those verses in the middle of the night when I don’t want to even open my eyes to read my bible app. It’s really been a blessing to me to have some good nuggets to choose from, even though those middle-of-the-night recitations may not always be crystal clear. :)

Most of my life I’ve been resistant to memorizing scripture (probably too much other information going in to my brain) but I’ve come to realize the times when I need to offer an encouraging verse are most often times I don’t have my Bible handy or when it would be awkward to open my Bible app. It needs to just spill from my mouth genuinely and with ease. Blessings on this important encouragment!

In reply to Lesley. Yay! I'm so glad that you're going to do the Colossians 3 challenge with us, Lesley! It's a good passage to have in our hearts. Psalm 91 is a beautiful chapter; I can see how it would bring you lots of comfort.

Perhaps he didn’t need to 😉

“Sub specie aeternitatis”? Did someone mention Spinoza?

This is great, Lisa. I agree that memorising Scripture is so important. I’ve learned lots of individual verse but Psalm 91 is the only longer chunk I’ve learned. It’s a great one to have in my mind for times when I feel worried or anxious. I’d like to learn more and I love Colossians 3 so I’m going to join you and do the challenge. Thanks for this encouragement.

In reply to floyd.

I had a hunch you’d relate to some of those oldies but goodies, Floyd. 🙂 Jeff and I saw a Black Jacket Symphony concert a few months ago that did a cover of the complete Hotel California songs. It’s amazing how those lyrics have stuck around in my head for years and years. I do want God’s words to do the same…
