"What would serve you the best? What passage do you need in your heart all the time?"
A prayer begging forgiveness.
A prayer for a clean beginning washed with Christ's blood.
We sin fresh each day and each day (sometimes many times) we must be wiped clean.
The passage I need all the time? Psalm 51.
The passage I need all the time? Psalm 51.
I spend the first minutes of my morning with this piece of the Word, and through the day I revisit, tasting these words again.

I've been spending some time with your "Mama in Progress" posts. This post is short and simple but very much the one I needed. I love, love, love how certain kinds of wisdom come easily to husbands! What yours said, that you relay, here, is inspirational to me. I have been reading about some other women's work in memorizing books of the Bible. That seems overwhelming to me! But I think--after reading this post--I might really like to memorize Psalm 3. Have you heard the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir sing it? ("Thou Oh Lord": it's on youtube.) Thank you so much for this, and blessings to you and yours...
