February 1 - Scripture post

I know there are some of you who are just now joining us, and we welcome you!!

When it came time to pick scripture last time, I had a really hard time. Several verses had caught my attention (especially some that you posted) but none seemed to be “the one”. The one I ended up choosing was powerful, and several times the last two weeks it has abruptly stopped me from saying or doing something I should not!! I also found comfort one day in frustration when I could grab my spiral and read through my verses. At the back of my spiral I have added some verses that I may or may not get to memorize, but that I felt a need to have handy and help keep me focused.

Someone asked, and the answer is yes! It is okay to learn the same scripture as someone else. That is what this is for . . . to share, learn, and mentor each other in being able to “wield God’s word”! So, if you do not have your scripture picked out, check out some of the previous postings and maybe one of those will speak to you!! Remember to pick one that YOU need!!!

“Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.” Proverbs 30:5 (NIV)
