I so hope you are already seeing fruit from hiding God's Word in your heart. I am overwhelmed again this morning at the profound way God's Word never grows stale or stagnant ~ it is always ready to teach us something new or remind us of a truth we once learned but need to learn again, or perhaps is the encouragement we need for the moment we are in.
We have just finished studying some lessons from the life of Joseph {at church} and the suggested memory verse is what I'm taking in this time around. Here it is:
Audrey, Ohio
Genesis 50:20 ESV (version)
As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today.
May your eyes be open to see God's blessings today!
PS-You can choose your own verse to memorize, or join me in memorizing Genesis 50:20 if it resonates with you. You need only to work on memorizing your choice, though, and not those of anyone else :) We'll continue to choose a scripture on the 1st and 15th of each month throughout 2012 ~ feel free to invite friends and family to join us; they can begin right where we're at with no need to catch-up. Using index cards in a spiral is a great way to keep your memory verses all in one place and makes it handy to carry them with you so you can be meditating/thinking upon them while you are away from home.

Thank You, Audrey! I join you with the ESV translation of Genesis 50:20! I've always loved this verse and the story behind it and have "remembered it" in a loose sense, but never memorized it. I begin today to plant it in my heart.

1 The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it;
2 for he founded it on the seas
and established it on the waters.
