Life Verse

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)


being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;
