Brain Gymnastics
At my home church, the ladies are studying the book of James. Beth Moore's new Bible study about James is the guide for discussions. This study will overlap with our US visit.
Last year, during our US visit, I got to sit in on a few of the studies of David with my old buddies and loved it. This year, it looks like I'll be able to make only 1 or 2. Bummer.
However, I did look at the sample of the James study online and decided I could join these ladies in doing one thing... memorizing the book of James.
Why am I putting this out on the blog? Perhaps, for a bit of accountability. My brain is old(er) and full of linguistics at the moment. However, hiding God's Word in my heart (and brain) is important and the timing is right.
So, I hereby give you permission to ask me about how my efforts at memorizing are going. And pray for me... this workout for me will be no less taxing than a new exercise program. (which I also need to begin - alas)
And to all of my friends at home who are also committing these beautiful verses to memory - cheers! Let's do this!

Laura, I'll ask you about your memorization so long as you ask me about my Bible reading journal.
