"I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You." ~Psalms 119:11
I have some friends who are amazing at hiding God's word in their hearts. They have countless chapters of the Bible memorizing, word perfect. I don't know how they can memorize it so quickly, and keep it memorized, but somehow they're able to. They even compete in Bible quizzing competitions. I've been trying to memorize God's word recently, but I've only gotten 14 verses in about two weeks, nothing compared to the chapters they would have memorized in two weeks! But to me, that's okay. I may not be an amazing memorizer like them, but that doesn't give me an excuse for not memorizing God's word. It may take much longer for me to memorize than it takes them, but regardless, I need to hide God's word in my heart. Even with the few verses I've been memorizing, they've been popping in my mind at just the moments when I need them. It hasn't been the difficult, time consuming thing I thought it would be at first--it turned into a blessing. Don't we all need to hide God's word in our heart? What's stopping you from memorizing God's word?
