In Christ Alone our Hope is Found

I have 3 things I want to write this morning... First, here is our new memory verse. I didn't do so well memorizing this week. I find it is directly related to my devotions. If I am faithful in my devotions, I am faithful in memorizing. It is all discipline. It is quite frustrating. The only reason I am still doing this is because I know there are a few doing it with me and I have to keep posting these verses. Accountability is a good thing! (O: Psalm 1:3-4 He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruits in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does. he prospers. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. __________________________________________________________________________________ Next, I was wonder if you would pray for this FAMILY ? Their little Charlie is getting his eye removed this morning at 9:30. Please pray that the Lord will wrap His arms around them as they leave him in that operating room a...

Good Day! It is Monday already! These weeks are going so fast! (o: I have to be honest and say that I have been struggling with my memory work. I am sure that it is all discipline.

What can flesh do to me? This is one of my favourite verses ever! This one is in a Steve Green song that Micah and I often listened to on the the way to hospital during his first year of his treatment. It was/is precious to us.

Hey "Memory People", I didn't hear very many progress reports last week! We all want to know how each other did, it is part of holding each other accountable! Tell us even if you didn't learn it well! It is a process to make something a habit! (O: So this week, I didn't do too badly. It still is not part of my daily routine. My goal this week is to do 10 minutes a day. I don't like the cramming thing. It is like teaching my kids Sunday school memory work on Saturday night. That simply doesn't work and they don't know it as well either. So we do memory work with devotions every morning.  I am going to start doing it that way for myself too! I am kind of happy about this next one. I learned Romans 12 in Junior Young Peoples when Arie Van Eyk and Dave Pronk were my teachers! It is a passage I still mostly know. So I will refresh this one and review that last 2  verses we have learned. Roman 12:1 and 2.    1  I appeal to you therefore, brothers...
