This Weeks Memory Verse:





How can a young man keep his way pure?

By guarding it according to your word.

With my whole heart I seek you;

Let me not wander from your commandments!

I have stored up your word in my heart that

I might not sin against you.



Psalm 119:9-11

This weeks memory verse:





Then I shall not be put to shame having my



eyes fixed on all your commandments.



I will praise you with an upright heart,



when I learn your righteous rules.



I will keep your statutes; do not utterly



forsake me!



Psalm 119:6-8















This weeks hymn:




How Shall The Young Secure Their Hearts?

and died No­vem­ber 25, 1748, in Stoke New­ing­ton, Eng­land

I could say much more about him, but it;s really late and I need to go to bed :).

This weeks memory verse:



Blessed are those whose ways are blameless,



who walk according to the law of the Lord.




Blessed are they who keep to his statutes,


who seek him with all their heart.



Psalm 119:1-2



I've decided that each week I want to learn a hymn, or at least one verse of one. On Sundays, I'll post which one I'm going to learn each week, and give some information about the hymn. This week I'm learning " A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" written by Martin Luther in 1529. He was born in November 10, 1483 in Eisleben, Germany, and he died on February 18, 1548. Later, in 1853, Frederic H. Hedge translated it from German to English. Martin Luther also wrote several other hymns; I'll probably tell more about him when we celebrate Reformation Day in October.

We've been really busy lately. Friday night at bed time, Samuel decided to stick a little green plastic bead in his ear (he was stalling). Daddy tried several ways to get it out, but he ended up having to go to the emergency room. After waiting for a long while, They tried getting it out, but Samuel was moving ( he was scared), and they made his ear bleed; It's pushed further in too. He's going to have to an ENT to get it out :(. I don't think he'll ever stick a bead in his ear again!



I've decided to start a blogging schedule! I haven't really thought of much yet, but I know that there will be a memory verse on Sunday, and a recipe some time during the week. Do y'all have any ideas?



This weeks memory verse:





Trust in the LORD and do good;

dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you

the desires of your heart.



Commit your way to the LORD;

trust in him and he will do this:

He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,

the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

Psalm 37: 3-6
