Wanting more of Jesus. I sure do need it/Him. So I'm off to commit to more than my human nature can commit to. I am committing to
reading through the Bible this year. I am all for accountability or folks walking alongside too!
Another goal is to
memorize scripture throughout the year. From the Living Proof Blog is where the idea got me. To memorize 2 scriptures a month. Trying to post them on her blog on the 1st and 15th. If anyone would want to make our own version I would be up for that too. I have been praying about doing a facebook event/group for the scripture memory. We wouldn't all memorize the same scripture (though we could). However on Beth's site you comment on a post of hers that is for the scripture that day) (the scripture you want to memorize. I posted mine yesterday on her post that was from the 1st requesting all scriptures folks were memorizing. That is all that there is to it.
I want Adeline and Esther to grow up knowing God's word (hence knowing God all the more). One way is for me to know it myself and infuse it into their lives. I want to be changed with the renewing of my mind. I want to glorify God. He deserves the praise, the honor, the glory for even getting me far (which isn't far at all) enough to consider this mighty task (which remember is going to take a lot of His power through me to accomplish this).
Some websites Pastor Gary mentioned in today's sermon were
www.walkthru.org;
http://www.visionforum.com; and
http://www.davidjeremiah. Bryan found on
studylight.org (a site I love) that you can choose "Daily reading plan" along the left side of the screen and then choose your preferences for straight through, new and old, etc). I am Blessed to have a Bible that belonged to my grandfather, Daddy T, that he used to read through the Bible in 1987. It has Old, New, Proverb, and a Psalm.
