Happy St. Patrick's Day

When I got up for work this morning I wasn't really sure what day it was
Much less remember that it was St Patrick's Day

I walked out of my bedroom to find this
Someone didn't forget what day it was...
And yes, He really wore this to work
For those of you who don't already know, this would be my brother...Tyler

You know what tomorrow is???
a day off!!!
I'm super pumped:0)
(I'm already aware that I'm uncool, so I can say that)

I'm not gonna spend a lot of time on here tonight because I just want some chill time.
but I have decided to do better about my verse memorization skills.

I do not naturally have good memorization skills. It's weird because I can remember a lot of things from the past pretty vividly that people said or did or whatever, but if you ask me if I liked a movie I watched 6 months ago, I probably will not remember much about it...unless I've seen it numerous times (Remember the Titans/ How To Lose A Guy in 10 days). I'm the same way with verses. I can recall portions of scripture and generally find it pretty quickly, but don't always remember the specific passage off the top of my head.

I want to be better. I want to be able to recall scripture and know with confidence where exactly it can be found.

So I am committing to being better disciplined at memorizing.
I am going to pick 3 verses every 2 weeks and recite them over and over, write them on index cards, whatever it takes to burn it in my brain

These are the 3 I'm currently working on...

Hebrews 12:1
Therefore since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perserverance the race marked out for us.

John 10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly

Galatians 5:1
It was for freedom that Christ set us free, therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to the yoke of slavery

Have a great night!!!
