Hello janet23! We rejoice with you that you've reached this wonderful goal. We rejoice that Jesus came to this world, that He died for us so that we might live, that He is Lord and that He is good and loves us, and we rejoice that you meditate on and memorize these truths in His Word every day.
14 And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15 And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; 16 and to those who were selling the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making My Father’s house a place of business.” John 2
13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” 14 Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. 15 Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.” --James 4:13-15
8 But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.
9 The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.
9 Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. 10 So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith. --Galatians 6:9-10
Thank you to every encourager: vadernader, onfire247, wordlearner22, janet23, JDJDJD, and MrsSpooner. Isn't it wonderful, that God calls each one of us by name?
I just want to emphasize, it's not such an amazing accomplishment in this sense: most of those verses I wouldn't now be able to recite perfectly on command. However, by using all three hints which are available and so on ... verses finally can reach a fully learnt status as long as you keep scoring 90 percent or higher on the review.
I started here in May 2015. But I'd already been working before that on a lot of the same verses at sites such as Memverse and Scripture Typer. And I also used to work on scripture memorization with pen and notebook back in the nineties and 2000s. So it's been a long time. Repetition is the soul of learning (I just heard a Bible teacher say that)
This number is a testament to the seven years you have committed to memorizing God's Word. We're all very proud of you and what you've accomplished here on this site, and we look forward to the achievements still to come!

15 He who walks righteously and speaks with sincerity, He who rejects unjust gain And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe; He who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed And shuts his eyes from looking upon evil; 16 He will dwell on the heights, His refuge will be the impregnable rock; His bread will be given him, His water will be sure. 17 Your eyes will see the King in His beauty; They will behold a far-distant land.
