One of my favorite things about this site is that it shows your memorization "streak", which is a lovely way of keeping a person accountable to review every day and add a new verse now and then, as well as a "reward" as a person continues their "streak" of continuous days.
Something that I find helpful to memorization is the use of other apps as aids for certain verses. For example, trying to memorize a long verse with a list of items in it can get interesting in trying to remember the items in order, like Habakkuk 3:17 or Isaiah 61:1. So I use Verses - Bible memory by Verses, Ltd. Co. as that has a system of breaking a verse into sections for easier memorizing of which section fits where in the verse.
Also, The Bible Memory App by Millenial Apps, LLC allows for constant review of verses if a person wants to do so. I find it a good way to review while waiting for an appointment or whatever.
OK, this may sound odd but this is the system that I use. I had gone through the Bible and written down on index cards all the verses that I wanted to memorize. Then I separated the cards into sets of 10 or 12 verses, and put those sets in a shoebox. And then I would take out each set which is a mixture of all the New Testament, and add that to learn scripture. So the numbering just goes in consecutive order. It started originally with the sets of verses from the book memorize the word. In the book, a person would memorize three or four sets of verses every week and each lesson was a two week lesson so the first set of verses was 1.0, and the second set was 1.5 etc. I hope this explains my unique system.
What is there a pattern in these verses or sets of verses that you've created? I ask because you number the sets like there is a pattern, but I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out what it is.

I knew there had to be a story there. Thanks for sharing yours with me. I can't imagine how long that took, writing down every verse that's good in the Bible! Also, I'm impressed you can keep track of them all. I tried learning individual verses, but I found that they just wouldn't stick unless I memorized the context in a chunk together.
