2013 Challenge - Verse 2!

How are you all doing?? January is quickly speeding by - it's the 15th already... and you know what that means? It's time to choose your second verse of 2013 to commit to memory! I hope you are all feeling confident that your first verses is cemented into your consciousness now... but don't forget to continue to review as you work on your new verse. :)

I found this great app for my phone that helps with scripture memory... but it's not just for your phone - you can use it online from your computer too! Check out Scripture Typer .  From their website description:  "It actively engages 3 separate cognitive areas: Audio (record verses audio and try to speak along with the playback), Visual (review verses using virtual flash cards & draw verse illustrations), and Touch (Type the first letter of each word in a verse to quickly memorize it)"

In case the link above doesn't work, here's the website -- http://scripturetyper.com

Have you looked at the comments for the Verse 1 Roll-Call? If not, you should... It's so encouraging to see those of you from ALL OVER who are committing to this 2013 challenge... WELCOME! I know there are others who have started as well, but will likely never make it to the blog. It's not too late if you are recruiting others - please let them know they are welcome to still join us! As someone wrote in a comment - "iron sharpening iron..." :)

Ok - time to check in and share your second memory verse in the comment area below.  Remember, first name, city/location, verse, reference/address and translation.

ps. Some people are having trouble commenting from their phones... I tested it and it didn't work for me either. Trying to figure out why... until then, you may have to sign in from a computer. Sorry!
