Scripture and what it can do for you.

A verse memorized can be an incredible tool for you for years and years to come. This week we are looking at the verse in Hebrews. "For the moment" it starts and that means that it isn't forever. It goes on 'all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant;' That's honest and its reality. Anytime we are trying to change something in our lives it is painful. Even having to discipline our children is always painful for us but we know the value of it. 'later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness' WOW what a promise. Who doesn't want peace and righteousness. And then it ends with 'to those who have been trained by it" . Training doesn't happen overnight. We just can't will to be different. We just can't stop bad habits because we want to. We have to submit ourselves to some training. Part of that training in Your Whole Life program is to memorize a scripture verse every week. If NOTHING else happened to you in these 12 weeks than the fact that you memorized and learned 12 scripture verses you will be a different person. Those thoughts and promises will be right there when you need them.
Week one taught us the words Be still and know that I am God. How many times in this very day have I needed to put those words into action in my thought life...............at least 10 times.
Blessings to you on this journey
