Activity from joosep§↻

Hello JDJDJD, I've decided to leave this group and also the other Leaderboard for Everyone. I've been adding a huge number of verses -- and I'm concerned that might seem odd to others or be discouraging to see how many points I'm accumulating simply by adding so many verses. It might seem unfair to see someone high on the list but based mainly on new verses added. As to why I'm doing this: I'm doing it so I can go through some specific parts of the Bible in order: Mark, John, Romans, Ephesians, and Revelation. My long-range plan for the next several months is to go through all those books in order several times. (I'm not paying much attention to the review queue at this point).

Once I'm not adding verses anymore, then I'll join the Leaderboard for Everyone again, and this one too, though I hate to trouble you to have to send an invitation.

I hope my explanation makes some sense. It's just want I feel the Lord wants me to do at this moment of my life in the study of His Word. I'll still be commenting here and there :)

I've only just seen your comment Joosep. I'm sure your not discouraging anyone. I certainly love to see loads of activity on this site. 😊👍It encourages me to see folks earning points and therefore must be spending time in Gods word. But I understand if that's what you want to do. Just let me know when you need the invite back. If I don't spot your comment here, put a comment on one of my news feed items. It seems like you have a great plan for study. Maybe I need to change my approach somewhat. I just love this site for every reason. Apart from spending time in God's word here there are some great folk and it's such an encouragement to me to see others spending time in God's word as they are learning scripture 👍🎉

Thank you JDJDJD! Your words are very encouraging. This is my testimony: I've been a Christian for a long time, since the seventies. But I've only started really intensely to study / meditate on / memorize God's Word since December 2014 when I found Memverse. Then in May 2015 I started on this site. Anyway, my life is different since I started doing this. I have a lot more peace and I feel closer to Him than I did before. I really love studying His Word. We love doing that because we love Him! And we love Him because He first loved us. Amen.

That's great to hear your testimony Joosep. Yes I too have been a lot different since I started learning scripture through this sight. I have a deep peace that passes understanding and I'm learning more about who the Lord really is every day. Yes I still have a long way to go but it's good to be going in the right direction. The Lord is good 😊

I'm glad to hear about the good affect it's had on you as well :) Amen.
