The verse I'm memorizing this week is the verse I've chosen as my life verse for the year. I've been working on it all week, so let's see if I can type it from memory:
Let Your work (the signs of Your power) be revealed to Your servants and Your glorious majesty to their children.
And let the beauty and delightfulness and favor of the Lord our God be upon us: confirm and establish the work of our hands, yes the work of our hands confirm and establish it.
Psalm 90:16,17 (Amplified)
Yes, I quoted it perfectly!
One day this week I looked up some parallel passages.
Psalm 44:1 "We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us what you did in their days long ago."
- One of the ways God's deeds are revealed to us and our children is by having them passed on. We do that ourselves when we tell these stories - from the Bible and personal experience - to our children.
Psalm 77:12 "I will meditate on all Your works and consider all Your mighty deeds."
- Meditating on the stories we've heard helps us make application to our own lives.
Psalm 90:4,5 "For you make me glad by Your deeds, O Lord: I sing for joy at the works of Your hands. How great are Your works, O Lord, how profound your thoughts."
