Psalm 119 Memorization Update
A while back, I set out to memorize Psalm 119. I started out excited and yet a little intimidated. I got cards made and had every intention of putting holes in them to keep them together. I didn't do that because I didn't have the binder rings that I needed. That was a big mistake. By the time I got the binder rings, I had misplaced half of my cards! I should have just use yarn or something in the meantime.
At any rate, I am back to it with a new determination. So far I can say the first 20 verses from memory. I can recite 21-23 with prompts. I love using the prompt system. It really does work for me.
Here is an example of the prompting system I use. I fold the paper over so I can only see the first letter of each word.
Psa 119:1 | Batuitw,wwitlotL. | Psalm 119:1 ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. |
I made a commitment last night to memorize 4 verses a week. I woke up this morning with severe stomach cramps. Coincidence? Of course not, but that's ok because I'm not letting go of God until He blesses me!
I'm looking forward to being changed through the memorization of God's word. I don't know about you, but I could use a good changing!
