I was listening the other day to her series called, "Measureless Love" (a six part series starting on March 26, 2012). The series was all about God's measureless love for us. She reminded us how amazing that concept is coming from a God who is so meticulous about measurement (like all the measurements for the temple and in Job 38:5 when God talks about marking off the dimensions of the earth's foundations, etc.). It was a really powerful series, and this was the main passage she used and my memory verse from this time around:
Megan L. from San Marcos: "I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." Ephesians 3:16-19 NIV

Hi all,
Since we are moving next week, I'm going to take one more break from Prov. 31. Sorry, Lynette.
Deuteronomy 11:19 (ESV)
You shall teach them (words of God) to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
Rebecca | Fallbrook
Psalm 126:2-3 NIV
Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”
The Lord has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy.
Danae, Escondido
"Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths,[a] you are there." Psalm 139:7-8, NIV
Am especially loving memorizing this Psalm and find parts of it coming to mind at various times. Thanks, Megan, for organizing and maintaining this scripture memorization endeavor for this year!

Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
Mark 11:24, NIV

John 1:11-13
He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God- children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision, or a husband's will, but born of God. NIV

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Gentile
Romans 1:16 NIV
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! 5 Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phil. 4:4-7 NASB
The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lire looks at the heart.

Ps. 86:4
"Bring joy to your servant,
for to you, oh Lord,
I lift up my soul."
Karen K. from Carlsbad: And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. John 1:5
Mindy M, Escondido: continuing Psalm 103...
Verse 7 has been heavy on my heart as I work with my children. I continually fall short and pray that God continues to work on me being slow to anger and abounding in love.
He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel.
The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. Psalm 103:7-8
Cari (South Carolina) “Yet even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; and rend your hearts and not your garments.” Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love; and he relents over disaster. Joel 2:12-13
2 Corinthians 4:8 ESV
We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair.
I'd like to also memorize the verses before and after this one, but for now I'm just going to focus on these words.

"She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue" Proverbs 31:26 (ESV)
Want to be more kind. I found a lot of verses related to kindness when looking for which verse to memorize... I just decided to go with this one for now. :o)
Lynette Cooper from Fallbrook, CA
She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. Proverb 31:19-20
Again I forgot to post my verse on the 15th so here it is a couple days late:(
Gabrielle (Yorktown, Va) The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. Zephaniah 3:19 (NIV)
