I have now memorized 10 of the 100 verses from Robert Morgan’s book, 100 Bible Verses Everyone Should Know By Heart. The Facebook group for this quest now includes over 400 members!
I’m trying to find different ways to practice the verses each week. Last week, I was introduced to Scripture Typer—a site that allows you to enter verses or choose them from the verse library. You type the verse out (copying it) to gauge your typing speed, then work on the “memory” level, where every other word is given, then type the verse completely from memory at the mastery level. I’m finding it a fun way to practice!
This week, I had Emily write out the verses. Then I cut apart the words and phrases and had her practice reassembling them to help her memorize.
The verses for week 6 are:
Do not let this book of the law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night so that you will be careful to do everything written in it. Joshua 1:8
I have hidden your Word in my heart that I might not sin against You. Psalm 119:11
Love it! It's been an exciting journey so far! I like this idea of cutting out the words and mixing them up. I think my kids would love it for sure!
