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.

I have TWO FABULOUS kids. Every Sunday I go to karaoke to hang out with friends and sing some tunes. I spend time on MySpace keeping in touch with friends and family. If you want to make a response to me personally as opposed to leaving one on the blog itself, my email is jenmeyer24@hotmail.com
