I’ve been thinking a lot about life verses. It’s been lying heavy on my heart. I’ve been feeling like I ‘should’ have one. It seems like all the mature Christians have one. Many Christians that I love and admire have a life verse. A verse that speaks deeply to them, a verse they have memorized, a verse that screams this is who God is or this is who I am in God, or this is what God promises or if they have chosen well, all three.
I’m going to pick a life verse. Oh, not today or tomorrow, I don’t think even this year. You see I’m not a ‘mature’ Christian. I have too many struggles. Too many fears. Too many temptations. Too many failures. I don’t know how I could choose just one. I have so many verses that I pray for so many different seasons and people in my life. So many that I have color codes them to allow me to find them more easily. But I know one day, I will be able to narrow it down to just one key life verse…for God has not finished working on me yet.
Philippians 1:6 (NKJV)
