This weekend Sami received her first Bible from our Church.  I spent a week talking to Sami about The Old and New Testament, the 4 major Gospels and so on.  Then we were to pick out 1 verse to write in her Bible.

 

ONE VERSE from the ENTIRE Bible.  I scanned the Bible thru and thru until I stopped at the book of Psalms.  Psalms has always been one of my favorite books of the Bible simply because it is very uplifting.

 

ANYWAYS, when finding a verse to write in her Bible I really wanted to find one that she could refer to at any point in her life.  When times get hard, something she could find comfort in.

 

Psalm 28: 7 reads as follows:

 

"The Lord is my strength and my

       shield;

in him my heart trusts;

So I am helped, and my heart

      exults,

and with my song I give

      thanks to him."

 

Psalm 28 has always been one of my favorites to read because it is a prayer that has helped me through many personal problems.  I don't know, it was just a special moment to read the verse and hand her the Holy Scriptures....a promise that I made to her at her Baptism.

Great choice of a verse. I love the book of Psalms. In the Book of Psalms there is always a psalm or verse that fits the situation or mood I'm in today.
