Good morning! Today I'm at 131, having just added one new verse.
Here's a verse which is very meaningful to me:
I will rejoice and be glad in Your lovingkindness, Because You have seen my affliction; You have known the troubles of my soul, 8 And You have not given me over into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a large place. Psalm 31:7-8 (NAS)
To the Moviegoer and MissStorm, there needs to be an invitation from the creator of the group, who was JDJD. When she sees this, then she will make an invitation for MissStorm to join. :) You can see the user JDJD further down on this thread, she last posted here on July 20 :) She also has the username JDJDJD.
thank you for the warm greeting. Yes, I too love John chapter ten. Verses 27 to 30 is a wonderful series of four verses and provide great comfort. In my opinion they also testify of the deity of Christ. He says that no one can snatch them out of My hand, and then adds that no one can snatch them out of the Father's hand. He thus makes Himself equal with God. God has given Him all authority (Matthew 28). In any case, we should meditate on that comfort (or at least I know I should) that no one can snatch me or take me out of the Father's hand. Merry Christmas as well to you and yours!
By the way, congratulations on the 5 million points! I realize of course points are not the most important thing, but they do represent time spent in God's Word :)
thanks for your encouragment, and I agree with you. Part of the problem, I think, was that I was learning an individual version in a Bible version which I don't usually use. So not only am I not sure about the verse, I'm also not sure about the version. I tried to "re-add" it for ten minutes ago, but then felt like it was ok to just accept it.
I'll check in with you again in a couple of weeks or so, and until then, the Lord's blessings upon you.
Hello JDJD! I just need to tell you that unfortunately, my streak got broken. I was cancelling some of the individual verses without realizing that I cancelled one which was a part of the streak. And then I couldn't remember exactly which verse it was.
So now I am at 107.
I'm at peace about it, God's Word is still God's Word.
