Today, I joined thousands of other people that read Living Proof Ministries blog in memorizing 2 scriptures a month. Together with these fellow bloggers, I have decided to learn a scripture every two weeks for the entire year.

Deut. 32:46-47 "he said to them, "Take to heart all the words I have solemnly declared to you this day, so that you may command your children to obey carefully all the words of this law. [47] They are not just idle words for you--they are your life. By them you will live long in theland you are crossing the Jordan to possess."

I think that it is important to keep God's word in your heart and to speak them daily. I have a hard time reading my bible. Not because I do not want to, but because I am fearful of not understanding it. Who wants to read something that they don't understand. I am realizing though, that to understand the Bible, and understand the plans that He has laid down for me, I have to read it, and to read it, I have to open it up. I am not one for new years resolutions, but i guess that in my desire to become closer to God, I will be trying to read my bible everyday and using the resources necessary to understand what He has written for me.

I will be writing my scriptures here. Please feel free to learn them with me, or learn your own! You can also follow the link to Living Proof blog (i have linked it in the beginning) and sign up with them.
