Chapter 11: Soaking
Soak in God's Word through study and meditation.
David invites the Lord to listen to him in Psalm 5:1: Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my sighing.
David sought God's favor in Psalm 19:14: May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart, be pleassing in your sight.
Paul encourages us to focus on whatever is excellent and praiseworthy in Philippians 4:8.
This week, we're encouraged to memorize and meditate on a Scripture passage "until it penetrates your heart and soul."
I chose Jonah 2:8: Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs.
Everytime I read this simple verse, my heart lurches at its sadness so I want to dig deeper into it.
What passage are your hiding in your heart?

Like the idea about soaking, Johnnie. There is one drawback. A good friend of ours used to say, Don't-sit, soak, and sour. (like a sponge) Just sit and soak and then be squeezed on whatever the Lord has in your life.
Karen, you are so much fun! I'm going to share that with my Hearts Above ladies tomorrow night.
