In reply to Stephanie Hanes. Stephanie, that is such a huge revelation. Our thought lives have profound effects on whether or not we're walking in the freedom Christ died to give us. Such a great reminder. Praying that His Word renews our minds and reveals those places where we've allowed bitterness or lies to invade. Keep on, sister-friend.

In reply to Joanna. I am so sorry Joanna. Praying that God's Word touches those tender places of your heart. I can't imagine. Hugs to you.

In reply to Tammy Schroeder. That's awesome, Tammy. And if it's any consolation, I forget ev.er.y.thing. Start small. Work on one verse at a time. Write it down on a couple of notecards. Then just keep repeating it. I know God will bless your soul. Blessings to you.

Love this! I’ve been reflecting lately on how the words I speak to myself are just as important as those I speak to others. I purpose to speak love and kindness to others, but so often I let the lies and bitterness about myself wrap around my heart and forget the truth that He has set me free from this world and all those expectations I place on myself. No, there is no good in me…except for Him. And all those things He promises when we believe and walk in Him are mine. Thank you for this!

Funny you should ask. I posted this scripture this morning on Instagram as I come to the end of my Breaking Free study (Beth Moore)….“He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry [shavah], and will save them” (Psalm 145:19).
Thank you Lara as this confirms God’s calling on my heart to memorize His Word, His truth. It is the only way we can defend ourselves from evil. The only way that works for me. His Word and worship music are my “fightin words” and I ain’t givin up!
Love you Lara!

Wow. I have verse 26 on my baby son’s gravestone because he died of a heart defect. But I had *forgotten* about this psalm! And I am fighting a sense of entitlement and loss and these verses are so right for me just now. Thank You!

Well that was straight to the point for me. I haven’t memorized Scripture in a while God has been doing some serious work with me and He has had me wrestling over this. I am not good at memorizing but I am going to give it a try. Thanks so much for sharing.
