This is a video our family put together. The goal is to help others (and ourselves) to memorize scripture.

Bible Study

1/29/2013

5 Comments

 
This past December my sisters and I started a bible study/game night with some of our friends.
We have been studying the book of James. We start with prayer and then we have our bible study and
then after the study we have snacks and play games. It’s a great time to get to
know each other better and to encourage one another in the faith.
 
We have not finished studying the book yet, but here are some verses that stuck out to me so far:


 "This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be
quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; 
for the anger of man does not achieve
the righteousness of God." James 1:19-20

"But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely
hearers who delude themselves. 
For if anyone is a hearer of the word
and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a
mirror;  for once he has
looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of
person he was." James 1:22-24 

"Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead,
being by itself. 
But someone may well say, “You have faith and I
have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith
by my works.” 
You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and
shudder." James 2:17-19 

"Look at the ships also, though they are so great and
are driven by strong winds, are still directed by a very small rudder wherever
the inclination of the pilot desires. 
So also the tongue is a small part of the
body, and yet it boasts of great things." James 3:4-5
 

I encourage you to start a Bible study with your friends or just a get together with friends and take turns reading God's word as a group of friends. 
We have all had a lot of fun learning more about Yahweh and his ways, and I hope you will too!

                                               Shalom and have a great day!

Bethany's Shema Painting (a work in progress)

                                            Bethany's Shema Painting

Picture

Picture
Last spring I asked my parents if I could re-decorate the entryway- to my surprise they said yes! I sketched out some ideas and asked them for some input. 

This painting is one of the products of that discussion

Of course it's not finished yet! The middle row of letters still need a few more coats of paint and the last row  isn't even painted yet.

Picture
I hope to post again when the painting is finished.

"Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.

 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates."


Peace,

Bethany

Shema

Deuteronomy 6:4-9
"Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one! 
And you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your might. And these Words which I am commanding you today shall be in your heart, and you shall impress them upon your children, and shall speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up, and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates."

Picture
There are so many lessons we can learn from Deuteronomy 6:4-9. From how to love God all the way to when and where to teach your children, the Shema is full of wisdom and insight.
Picture
One of the ways I like to 'write these on the doorposts of [my] house and [my] gates' is by adding them to my quilts. These pictures are of my very first quilt (It is the first quilt I have finished but it is not the first quilt I started ). The Border of this green quilt is embroidred with the Shema in Hebrew and the Fruits of the Spirit.
Picture
My Green quilt is not very complicated because simple is sweet when it comes to new projects :)
Picture
What are some ways you write these on your doorposts?
