2011 Siesta Scripture Memory Team: Verse 21!

What???? Are you kidding me??? Verse 21?!?

We’re just four verses from the finish line, Sisters! To God’s great glory, we’re doing this thing! I grinned from ear to ear two weeks ago when someone posted “Jesus wept” as her verse. That’s fair game! All of us could use a little catch from time to time. You guys bring me so much joy. May God cause His love and power to explode within you because you’ve worked so hard and fought so many distractions to get to this point.

OK, Girlfriends, here’s mine:

Beth, Houston. “Just as each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of the varied grace of God. Whoever speaks, let it be with God’s words. Whoever serves, do so with the strength that God supplies, so that in everything God will be glorified through Jesus Christ. To Him belong the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 4:10-11 The NET Bible

Let me hear yours!

Stay the course, Sweet Things. You are so dearly loved and planned for by God.
