Verse 3

I think January must have felt like a long month, because part of me is struggling to believe that we are only on our third verse of the year... I hope that all of you are doing well and are making the memorization a priority. This is a new discipline for me, but I think that I'm already improving with it. My first verse about fighting this warfare with spiritual weapons that have divine power to destroy strongholds has come in handy more times than I can even count over the last few weeks... I'm so thankful to be able to refer back to it at any time!

I'm going short and sweet for this next one...

Verse 2

In some ways, I can't believe that tomorrow is the 15th already... In other ways, this has been a very LONG two weeks!

Thank you so much for joining together and sharing your verses last time. I hope you have enjoyed reading them just as much as I have.

Remember, as we start the second verse (which I hope you're writing down on index cards or in a small notebook), it's time to continue to review the first one as you learn another. Don't let your first verse go to make room for a new one!

Okay, mine is "And he said to all, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.'" Luke 9:23 (ESV)

The words "deny himself" are jumping off the page. That's why I want to memorize this one.

Your turn!
