Memorizing Scripture is hard for me, unfortunately I have a hard time remember a lot of things. So I have a habit of writing practically everything down. I don't want my boys to be my age and not remember where or what a certain Scripture says. So, everyweek now, I am trying to have us memorize a new Scripture! They are getting them down so quickly.
One game we play, once they've gotten the Scripture pretty much down is, I type the verse up on my computer in a table format so that each word is in it's own section. Print it. Then, I cut each section of paper. After we mix up all of the words, the boys put the verse back together, like a puzzle! At first, they didn't like this game because it was different; but, now they do like!
This week's verse: Genesis 1:27
Have a blessed day!

Praying for our Children to Grow in the Likeness of Christ
Heavenly Father,
Show me how to bring up these children to be the men You so want them to be. Showing humbleness, meekness, lowliness, and strength to make it through each day. Guide their steps and bring them peace, love, joy, mercy, and grace. Thank you Father - for Your Love. Nothing can replace -- Nothing can surpass. I pray in Jesus' name, amen.

Joy of Salvation!
JOY OF SALVATION
Sing, O Daughter of Zion; shout aloud, O Israel!
Be glad and refjoice with all your heart,
O Daughter of Jerusalem!
The Lord has taken away your punishment,
He has turned back your enemy.
The Lord, the King of Israel, is with you;
never again will you fear any harm.
On that day theywill say to Jerusalem,
"Do not fear, O Zion; do not let your hands hang limp.
The Lord your God is with you,
He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you,
He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing."
-Zephaniah 3: 14-17
There is much joy in my heart to know that our Lord will not leave us in such darkness from the cruelty of this world. He will lead us to greatness, love, mercy, and grace! Just think about His glory - He sings over us! Really sings --- takes in the moment and sings! Tears of joy overwhelm me. Thank You gracious One, Comforter, Healer, Changer of all - Use me.
