Family Life Verse

We have been discussing what our family verse will be this year
Our oldest son has really taken an interest this year and he prefers
Psalms or something on love. 
I am liking the learning from past mistakes and love as well.  


    Here are some of our choices that we found via Google. 
      I think it is awesome that we can show our kids that  the internet can be used for finding God's word as well as Webkins and Farmville. We found a cool Esty who sells live verse designs. Check her out, Life Verse Design
    Do you have a family verse? If so, please share!
A Living Hope:
I Peter 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope 
through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead

Hope for the Future
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD. 
They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 

A New Heart
Ezekiel 36:25-27  Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and 
you will be clean. Your filth will be washed away, and you will no 
longer worship idols. And I will give you a new heart with new 
and right desires, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your 
stony heart of sin and give you a new, obedient heart. 
And I will put my Spirit in you so you will obey my laws
and do whatever I command. 

Forgetting the Past
Philippians 3:13-14  No, dear brothers and sisters, I am still not all I should be,
 but I am focusing all my energies on this one thing: Forgetting the past and 
looking forward to what lies ahead, I strain to reach the end of the race and
 receive the prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us up to heaven. 

Learning from Past Mistakes
Hebrews 12:10-11 Our fathers disciplined us for a little while as 
they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, that we may share
 in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. 
Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace
 for those who have been trained by it. 

Wait on the Lord
Psalm 37:7  Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait 
patiently for him to act. Don't worry about evil people who prosper
or fret about their wicked schemes. 

Isaiah 40:31 Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; 
they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired,
they will walk and not become weary. 

God's Timing is Perfect
Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. 
He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; 
yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 

Each New Day is Special
Lamentations 3:22-24 The unfailing love of the LORD never ends!
By his mercies we have been kept from complete destruction. 
Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each day
I say to myself, The LORD is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him! 


Many Blessings for your family in 2011!
Happy New Year and C'est bon est le bon Dieu! 
(How good is the good God!)
