The Bible passage I chose to memorize in June came from Isaiah, chapter 26, verses 3 and 4:
You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD, is the Rock eternal.
Al de carácter firme, lo guardarás en perfecta paz, porque en ti confía. Confíen en el SEÑOR para siempre, porque el SEÑOR es una Roca eterna. –Isaías 26:3,4
Thanks for keeping me accountable!
Your turn to share: What verses have you been memorizing lately?

I’m memorizing Matthew 11:28-30. Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
I’m memorizing this because my son Frank will be deployed to Iraq in August and I am asking God to take this burden away from me and take care of my son while he’s serving.

The lack of my comment speaks for itself. The next time you ask about memorization, I’ll be able to answer in the positive! Thanks for the encouragement.

I’m working on Ephesians 6:13-18a:
Putting on the strong BELT OF TRUTH, and the BREASTPLATE OF GOD’S APPROVAL. WEAR SHOES that are able to speed me on our way as we preach the GOODS NEWS of peace with God. In every battle we will need FAITH AS OUR SHIELD to stop the fiery arrows aimed at us by satan. And you’ll need the HELMET OF SALVATION and the SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – which is THE WORD OF GOD.
God bless!
