Favorite Verses

Amy over at Amy’s Zoo inspired me to add a “Favorite Verses” Page.

Because:
[My word] will not retun to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. ~Isaiah 55:11

So many of these verses are meaningful to me personally because they spoke directly to my mind AND my heart at a particular time or place, and God still uses them remind me of these things. I hope you too will experience this personal knowledge of God if you haven’t already.

Here are some of my favorites (I know it’s kind of a long list; but, me and God, we’ve been talkin’ lately):
