• “I was poor in the midst of riches, and ready to perish with hunger near a table plentifully spread and a continual feast. Oh, Beauty, ancient and new! Why have I known thee so late? Alas, I sought thee where thou wast not, and did not seek thee where thou wast…” – Madame Guyon

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.

  • ”As we grow spiritually, God begins to wean us from things that we think we can’t live without: things, comfort, the longing for life to ‘work.’ That’s a childish instinct, to say, ‘Life has to work the way I want it to work, and now’.” – Nancy Leigh DeMoss
