Today, I am reminded that I should love Him and His Word more fiercely.
Memorising scriptures seems like a chore, a redundant one at that since we can just look up for scriptures on the Internet whenever we like and we conveniently get it. What's the point of memorising the Bible when we can flip through the pages and just get the verses when we need them?'
On the contary, I feel that there's more than that.
Memorising and remembering His Word is definitely not a chore.
A chore is something that you do because you have to do it, you complete it for the sake of simply getting it over and done with and you might not even enjoy it. A chore is something you spend time doing and completing it unwillingly.
Remembering scriptures is important, at least to me.
Today, I was reminded of how much I relied on them and the encouragement that they give me every single day.
It's about keeping God's Word and commands close to my heart,
so much so that I feel that He's speaking to me and He's always with me.
I know Him better everyday because the Bible verses are His Words.
I do it willingly simply because I want to and I want to plunge deeper into His Word each and everyday.
I don't even think the word "remembering" or "memorising" applies.
I don't memorise the Bible like how I memorise my geography textbook content :/ It's totally different!
I guess it's to the extent where you have came across these verses so many times that it just get stuck in your head and you just... remember them!
If that is under the category of memorising, then fine, hahah I memorise them!
