Congratulations treeswallow!

Thank you all so much! :-)

Thank you for sharing, onfire!

Yeah, that's an awesome accomplishment! I would definitely only do one a day to earn that badge. Way to go above and beyond!

That's an awesome passage to memorize and meditate on. Nice choice!

Awesome job! Keep up the great work! Thy Word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against Thee.

1 Lord, and is thine anger gone?
And art thou pacify'd?
After all that I have done,
Dost thou no longer chide?
Infinite thy mercies are;
Beneath the weight I cannot move,
O 'tis more that I can bear,
The sense of pard'ning love!

2 Let it still my heart constrain,
And all my passions sway;
Keep me, lest I turn again
Out of the narrow way;
Force my vi'lence to be still,
And captivate my ev'ry thought;
Charm and melt, and change my will,
And bring me down to nought.

3 If I have begun once more
Thy sweet return to feel;
If even now I find thy pow'r
Present my soul to heal:
Still and quiet may I be,
Nor struggle out of thine embrace;
Never more resist or fly
From thy pursuing grace.

4 To the cross, thine altar, bind
Me with the cords of love;
Freedom let me never find
Form my dear Lord to move;
That I never, never more
May with my much-lov'd Master part,
To the posts of mercy's door
O nail my willing heart.

5 See my utter helplessness,
And leave me not alone;
O preserve in perfect peace,
And seal me for thine own!
More and more thyself reveal,
Thy presence let me always find;
Comfort and confirm, and heal,
My feeble, sin-sick mind.

6 As the apple of an eye
Thy weakest servant keep;
Help me at thy feet to lie,
And there for ever weep:
Tears of joy mine eyes o'erflow,
That I've an hope of heav'n;
Much of love I ought to know,
For I have much forgiv'n.

A hymn by Charles Wesley.

This discussion just caught my eye. Interesting!! The Greek word is κράζω, and refers to the croaking or screaming of a raven. It is used very sparingly with regard to Jesus. As far as I can see, the only other time this term is used referring to Him is His final cry on the cross (Matthew 27:50). The word is used for the crowd's shouting of Hosanna (Mark 11:9), the screaming of the demon-possessed (Mark 5:5), and the demanding cry of the Jews to crucify Jesus (Mark 15:13), among 50 other occurrences. The loud cry of Jesus in John 7:28 is to be contrasted with the people's disbelieving, quiet muttering to each other in verses 25-27. Rather than letting the crowds focus on who they thought Jesus was, He cries out and proclaims who He really is. Thank you for pointing this little nugget out!

Congratulations!! May God bless you as you study and memorize His Word.

:-) It's a passage that I always seem to end up in when I'm studying, so I thought I'd just memorize it!

That chapter was top of my review list this morning!

Blessings to you, treeswallow!

That's amazing! The Lord bless you and keep you.

Thank you! I need that prayer every day of this my short, uncertain earthly life and pilgrimage. Set your affections on things above, and not on things on the earth.

I wish to congratulate you, treeswallow, and to pray that you will follow closely to our Lord in all your thoughts and actions. I pray for myself the same.
