Weekly Challenge
“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is
–his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
~Romans 12:2 (NIV)
In my life, I’ve discovered the greatest gift I can give my brain is the gift of Truth. The brain is bombarded with filthy lies and often sabotaged by the world we live in. We have the opportunity to do a daily cleanse and renew ourselves through God’s Word. I invite you to take a journey with me in discovering what the Truth can do when you place it inside your heart. I will simply post a new verse every week and challenge each one of us to memorize it. May we find ourselves better equipped for battle, as we place more weapons in our arsenal.
Please feel free to share how God is using these verses in your life. Let’s get ready to rumble!
You are welcome to grab the button of any verse on the blog. Please use it as something to help you remember the verse for the week.
