"One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple."

~Psalm 27:4

Scripture Memorization #9

Esteemed Daughters of the Living God!

     You are absolutely lovely!  Wonderful!  You are so much fun!  Keep hiding those verse/verses in your heart!  Mediate on them!  Ponder them!  Memorize them!

     “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.”  (Galatians 5:1)

     The Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776!  In a few days our nation celebrates Independence Day celebrating her 235th birthday. 

    This is a time of family reunions, concerts, parades, picnics, barbecues, games, apple pie and ice cream and topped off with “the rockets’ red glare and the bombs bursting in air” in the dark starry night.  It is a time when “the star spangled banner in triumph wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave”.  It is a time for the red, white and blue.
    
     We too often forget that we can celebrate our spiritual freedom.  Let us celebrate by remembering that Christ paid our sin debt “in full”! 
    
     Let us celebrate together………

     Christ “came that we may have life and have it abundantly.”  (John 10:10) ESV
     “…where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”  (2 Corinthians 3:17) ESV
     “…you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”  (John 8:32) ESV
     “…if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” (John 8:36) ESV
    
     The Father has led me to meditate and memorize the following verses:
     “For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority.”  (Colossians 2:9, 10) NASB
     Isn’t He lovely?  Isn’t He beautiful?  He is enough!!!
     There is anticipation in my heart to see the verse/verses to which the Father has led you.  Your verse/verses are such an encouragement for all of us. 
     Post your verse/verses, reference, translation and name, Precious Ones!  Remember, you are the apple of His eye! 
I love you,
Olda
