Another mid-year checkup (5 or 10): Memory?

So far we've looked at Bible reading, prayer, Evangelizing, and sin. Now on to another checkup for the middle of the year. How are you doing with Scripture memorization? Even though we have Bibles on our smartphones and tablets, that doesn't mean that we will use them when we are in a situation, we should have God's word memorized.

The post from Thomrainer.com goes as follows:

What scriptures have you memorized this year? Do you echo the desire of the psalmist: “May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You” (Psalm 19:14)? Based on your memorization of God’s Word this year, would I conclude that you treasure God’s Word in your heart (Psalm 119:9-11)?

Scripture memory is a tough one for many of us.

Why not commit to memorizing 1 verse by the end of the year? Why not start by writing that verse out and placing it where you will see it every day (like the bathroom mirror)? I like the concept that Word of Life does, where they have scripture on business cards for you to memorize.

Although memorization is tough for many of us, it's another thing we should commit to doing.
