Our Birthday Scripture

Posted in Kids and quips

Our oldest daughter turned 11 on Friday, so I thought I would share our birthday scripture with you.  We used this last year and so far this year as our daily devotions for each child’s birthday.  Maybe once they all have it memorized we’ll get a new birthday scripture!  We read all of Psalm 139, then focus in on verses 13-18.  My Bible is a KJV and NIV parallel, and I have different verses underlined in each version.  I love words, and different words “jumped out” when I read this.

 

 

Psalm 139:13-15 (New International Version)

 13 For you created my inmost being;
       you knit me together in my mother's womb.

 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
       your works are wonderful,
       I know that full well.

 15 My frame was not hidden from you
       when I was made in the secret place.
       When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

Psalm 139:16-18 (King James Version)

 16Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

 17How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

 18If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

 

Be blessed, Danielle

Apr. 4, 2009 - Hard to believe...

It is hard to believe how quickly time flies. Tell the birthday girl a belated happy birthday! I can still see the photo of Matt holding her on his shoulder at Eric's 1st bday party (I think it was). She was so tiny!
Or her first Easter pics at your mom's...
It's weird getting older and having known each other for so long... like being married for 20 years(!!!) I guess. lol

Boy I need to start scrapbooking again... : )
