Scripture Memory

Madison started memorizing scripture last year. She had a new one each week at school so that was the one we practiced with her at home too. Since she is doing pre-school again she is learning all the same verses, so we have decided to start giving her and Cooper new ones at home. We have them printed & taped on their closet door and in the kitchen. They practice them all week and on Sunday, if they have learned their verse, we are giving them $1.00. We're teaching them about tithing so they will use their money they earn to tithe and then they can save the rest to buy
something they want. Madison says she wants a barbie that she saw on t.v. --apparently you can cut her hair. Cooper doesn't really understand so he hasn't mentioned what he is saving for. We were super proud of them because they both learned their verse on week 1.

Week 1 - "In the beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth" Genisis 1:1

Week 2 we decided to add 2 verses- "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight" Proverbs 3:5-6

They were so proud to earn their first dollar. They are on track to get another one tomorrow. Madison is so excited about having the verses printed and in her room. She told Trent that she couldn't wait until her doors and walls are covered in her bible verses. :)
