• “In case any are puzzled by the different translations from which I draw strength and help and delight, it is like this: In studying any object with the microscope we use different lenses and turn the mirror in various ways; each change brings out some new wonder and beauty. So it is for those who are not Greek or Hebrew scholars, and who use the work of scholars to open the meaning of the exhaustible Word–the Bible is richer than any single version can fully show.” – Amy Carmichael

Memorization – Nancy Leigh DeMoss 02/20/12

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: When I talk with someone who’s discouraged or depressed, I often ask them, “Are you memorizing Scripture?” Now, that’s not a magic formula to make problems go away, but memorizing God’s Word has power to change our perspective about whatever issues we’re facing.

(Children quoting Scripture)

“Be ye kind one to another.”

“Give thanks to the Lord that made great lights—sun by day, moon and stars by night.”

“But God demonstrates His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for our sins.”

Nancy: If you’ve never memorized Scripture before, I suggest starting small and learn just a couple of verses a week.

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart.”

Nancy: I’m confident that you’ll find that God’s Word will start to influence all of your thinking.

“The LORD is my Shepherd; I shall not want.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.
