Memory Verses

This is where I'm going to keep a running list of the scriptures I'd like to commit to memory. I've never been very good at memorizing things, but I'm going to give it another shot. This is not necessarily in the order I'm going to memorize them. It's mostly in the order that I come across them in my studies. But I may move which ever one I'm currently working on to the top. So don't be surprised if the order is a little different sometimes.

The book, chapter, verse link goes to the American Standard Version at Bible Gateway. The ESV link goes to the English Standard Version at the Good News/Crossway website. All quotes, unless otherwise stated, come from the ESV.

Matthew 6:31-34 ESV

Sufficient for the day is it's own trouble."

1 Peter 4:1-2 ESV

John 14:6 ESV
