New Favorite Verse

Job 23:12 -
12
I have not departed from his commands,
but have treasured his words more than daily food.

This is my new favorite Bible verse. I've tried this new thing. I'm on FB and I found this application through a friend. It's basically a "read your Bible in a year" type deal. However, you can customize it - read from beginning to end, chronologically, etc. I've chosen to read chronologically, and right now I am in Job.

Even though I've read Job before, different things have popped out of me more thing time around. It just goes to show that God's Word ALWAYS has something for you, no matter where you are.

Job 23:12 really touched me because this is the woman that I want to aspire to be. Having Natty has really opened my eyes to a lot of things. One of those things is how to set a godly example for her. I have realized more than ever now that I need to be THE role model for her - how to be a godly wife, mother, and woman. It is my desire that when Natty is older and looks back on what she may have learned from me, that she can confidently say that her mother was someone who treasured God's word and followed His commandments. That I was someone who lived off of God's Word.
