This is not my backyard. I wish it were so tropical. It must be Opryland Hotel in Nashville, and I inherited the picture from the elder son, who used to live there. Not at the hotel. In Nashville. Anyway, it's pretty, isn't it?Today I thought we could share our favorite verses, and I also thought I could start with mine. But I don't know what it is, because I have so many. The first verse I ever memorized, back in 1974, because it struck me as so amazing was Hebrews 13:5b: For he has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." What comfort.
Then came Philippians 4:4-7 about anxiety and rejoicing and the incomprehensible peace of God. More comfort.
Many favorite verses later, I think my current favorite is Psalm 104:1: Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, you are very great. Great in mercy, beauty, strength, wisdom, love, faithfulness, kindness, perfection. Great in more things that I can name, or even know.
What is your favorite verse of today or yesterday? Please share under anonymous, but with your name included.
Thanks for asking for our favorite verse "of today or yesterday," as I don't have a favorite for always! As I've been reading in Hebrews, looking forward to our upcoming Hebrews study, I have been thinking about what it means that we have a high priest who is able to sympathize with our weaknesses. The verse that follows that statement give a great prod--"Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need." (Heb. 4:16) So, that's today's favorite!

I am actually spending time on the computer-my favorite is Job 19:25-I know my Redeemer lives and in the end He will stand upon the earth. Shely Hoffman
