Verse for the year

Approaching October. In a year that beats all. And it occurs to me. I can’t remember this year’s verse. 

Typically, I ask the Lord if there’s a verse to focus on throughout the year.

And I write the chosen verse out. Meditate on it. Consider applications along the way. Note similar themes in daily Bible readings that year.

Today, I’m searching. It’s September. And no 2020 verse is written on my spiral-bound notecards. What?

My verse for 2017 with notes, on a spiral-bound notecard.

Stones in the river

The sand was slippery. Soft. Shifting as we plunged through it to our tents by the river. 

Not just any river. The brilliant blue-green water rushing by this camp was the Ganga, otherwise known as the Ganges. Worshiped by millions of Hindus.
