Scripture Memory

I have to be totally honest, scripture memory is one of the spiritual disciplines that I have been very convicted of not putting my heart and literally my mind into.  I am very bent towards structure.  Sometimes that can be a good thing, but in the past I have let the structure get in the way, and instead of it being a healthy thing, it becomes un-healthy.  Funny how, if we do not use it we lose it, and that is very clear in the usage of the brain.  I was never a great student, but by God's grace alone, he is allowing me to delight in the Lord and trust in him with all my heart! 

Here are a few verses that I have been focusing on in the last couple of weeks -

Psalm 37:4

Delight yourself in the Lord

And he will grant you the desires of your heart

Psalm 46:10

Be still and know that I am God

I will be exalted among the Nations

I will be exalted in the earth

Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the lord with all your heart

and lead not on your own understanding

In all you ways acknowledge him

and he will make your path straight

Proverbs 3:11-12

My son, do not despise the Lords discipline

and do not resent his rebuke

Because the lord disciplines those he loves

As the father, the son he delights in.
