This isn't exactly a new year's resolution since I did it for all of 2010, but I decided to post it on my blog. Last year, I participated in an email Scripture memory group. We mediatated on and memorized one verse every two weeks throughout the year. I found it to be a wonderful pace for memorizing - there was plenty of time if life got busy, but not so much that we forgot about it.
Working on our verses has become our morning routine at the breakfast table. Alana and I talk about our verse and what it means and practice committing it to memory. It is a great way to begin the day in the Word. I can't think of a better resolution than to commit to hide God's Word in our hearts.
I've decided to post our verse on the first and fifteenth of each month when we staring working on a new one. Last year, we jumped around quite a bit. Sometimes, we did a section of Scripture and sometimes we did just single verses. However, this year I thought it would be good for Alana and I to work on the Proverbs 31 woman. So this is our verse for January 1st:
An excellent wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. - Proverbs 31:10 (ESV)
Happy New Year!
