Thoughts For the New Year

With the New Year quickly approaching (and time off work to reflect...while getting the holiday baking started, the gifts wrapped, the events, ohhhh who am I kidding hahaha) I am once again thinking about my new scripture verse for this year. Each year, I prayerfully choose a theme verse for the year to memorize, apply, and share with others. Generally, I spend a month on thinking and praying about this. Yet, this year the time issue has overcome my desire and I found myself with very little time and my desire was pulled in lots of directions.

Then an awesome answer came flying in when I was visiting Beth Moore's Blog. Instead of memorizing a verse for the year I will be memorizing two verses a month. That means my treasure of verses will be a whopping 24 verses this year! The goal is bigger, yet really just as simple!

If you would like to jump on this bandwagon, you will first want to invest in a spiral journal. You can purchase one at your local discount store or order the cute one pictured below. The cost for this one is $5 with shipping and handling at

To be honest, I am really excited about this new adventure! Connie Smiley, my dear friend, has memorized more scripture than any one I know. This will be a small comparison, yet a good step in the right direction. Wahooo!!! I can hardly wait for the first month of verses. For more information, read Beth's blog at
