We'll, my next verse is really to help me remember just why we study Scripture in the first place.
I study God's Word so that I can endure this life, be encouraged, and ultimately have hope in Him. That's what following Jesus is all about...endurance and hope! Since this verse is my second, I'll spend the rest of the year reciting my first verse, then my second, and so on. I figured it would be a good one to memorize early on so that throughout the year as I repeat my verses, I'll be encouraged to endure SSMT 'til the end because I'm hopeful that I'm going to go to Texas in January 2012! :)
What was your second verse?
"For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope."
Romans 15:4

Ok I know that you realize this but it is only the 15th, why do you start a new verse? I thought it was one a month. I noticed Beth has her second one too, so maybe I don't understand the way ya'll are doing it!
Love you and thanks for the hint!! I am really enjoying her posts!
Consider it a great joy, my brothers, whenever you experience various trials,knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.But endurance must do its complete work, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing. James 1:2-4
this is mine, by the way I love your blog!!
