We are in the season of Lent and I have committed to meditating on one verse per day. I picked out verses that God has revealed to me at some point during the past few years of Mommyhood. As I study and memorize them, I'll tape my note cards with verses to the kitchen cabinets. I'm looking forward to plastering my kitchen with scripture!
