They say bad habits are hard to break, but for me, it’s harder to make good ones.

I’m doing pretty good on my commitment to memorize a verse a week. I must admit, I am a week behind, but the good news is that I had already memorized this week’s verse a few years ago.

Eph. 2:8-9 (From memory, I swear!) “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not of yourself, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one may boast.”

But last weeks verse is still not tucked into my memory yet.

Acts 3:19 “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.”

I haven’t figured out a good way to review all the previous verses each week to make sure they stay fresh in my mind. I wrote the references on my wall calendar, but that’s only good for the current month.

Now, if I could just get my body working as hard as my brain, I’ll be ship shape in no time.
