17 miles of verses

So, I decided to memorize 26 verses for my marathon and I have been diligently working my way to my goal.  This is hard.  I am not in the habit of memorizing anymore....I left that behind in college!  I scribble my verse for the day on paper and carry it with me all day.  Some days I have several papers in my pocket so I can review all day long.  I have given myself quite the assignment.

The first five were:

Since I like to think that everyday as a stay at home mom is a little like a marathon, I have already used these verses to supply my needs.  Everyday is tough and great!  The race is going to be tough and great!  I know God will get me to the finish line!
