You know the one. You rack your brain and all you can come up with is another plaid scarf or a pair of fuzzy slippers. Well, here it is. I have the absolute perfect gift!
Wait for it…
A VERSE OF THE BIBLE! Music screeches to a halt. “The lady has lost her mind,” you think.
Maybe that’s partly true, but for the month of December OneVerse is launching a program called Gift-a-Verse. For $26 we can sponsor the translation of a verse of the Bible for a people group that doesn’t have the Bible in their own language.
Let me say it a different way. For $26 dollars we can bring life, living water, Jesus to a people group that’s waiting to hear of this Savior’s love.
That’s way better than a scarf.
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating because I need continual reminding. His Word is alive. We satisfy that deep down hunger for peace or joy or rest with His Word. Our souls crave our Maker’s voice.
In the midst of trial, He soothes and carries with promises of His faithful presence. When we have more questions than answers, He calms the anxious places by whispering of His perfect understanding. He teaches and corrects, transforms and loves with His alive Word.
Join me in marking those hard-to-buy-for-people off our list by giving them a gift that will truly make a difference in our world. A gift that will truly make a difference for another soul that craves the voice of their Maker.

Fill me, Lord…
How has His Word personally ministered to you lately?
I receive no compensation for my promotion of Gift-a-verse. I just think it’s a great idea.

To not be anxious (but look at what season we’re in!), to rejoice & give thanks in everything, and to pray continuously!
Lara Gibson Williams says
Ah, great promises. Choosing praise and prayer. Thanks for sharing.

I have re-read through Exodus 14, 15…particularly 14:14 that God fights for us. When we are in the valley…he fights for us! Who better than to have on our team?
