As most of you know, I love love love Beth Moore. I love following her blog and I love how she helps me understand the Bible. She is all about some scripture memory, which is something that I want to be all about as well. On her blog for the new year, she has helped start a system to help us memorize 2 scriptures per month. You are supposed to get a notebook and write a scripture down on the first and fifteenth of the month to think on and memorize for the month. Another great addition that she has added is a "notebook" for scripture memory for the IPad or IPhone. If you have one of those devices, check out her blog here:

There you can download the app and watch the video tutorial for how to add your scriptures and start memorizing. I have started the process a little late...just downloaded the app, though, and late is better than never :) So here is my first verse for the month of January,
1 John 3:18-20
"Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. This then is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in His presence whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and He knows everything."
I want to memorize and think of this verse to remember to love people with my actions. So many patients and people I come into contact with daily need a dose of true, real, Godly love and I want to love them with God's love that flows from Him. I hope that by memorizing this verse, those thoughts will stay near my heart and I will love others well. Also, such a great reminder in this verse that the Lord is much bigger than my thoughts and fears and He knows them all....such a peaceful and awesome truth.
If you want to join the fun, post your memory verse here, or write it down somewhere and start the process of memorizing Scripture with me!!!
