Memory verses

This week's memory verse comes from the beginning of Psalms, and deals with the reason we're doing this emphasis on Bible reading, prayer, and scripture memory in the first place.

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. (Psalm 1:1-2)

Next week's verse is going to be on the same theme, and is going to be a long one, so you may want to get a head start.

Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates... (Deuteronomy 11:18-20).

And the previous weeks verses...
