We pray that today's good word gives you comfort if you're weeping or hungering for something lost or out of reach. Know that better times are always ahead for those who believe in Jesus Christ — the life to come where toil and sorrow are no more. 

Today concludes our mission to memorize Psalm 19:7-14. How did you do? Was it difficult? Easier than you expected? Post a comment telling us about your experience. 

We've also got another free printable page with this week's graphics. When printed, they should be roughly the size of a business card so that you can cut them out and keep them handy so you can keep up your memorization in the future. We really hope that memorizing scripture has brought you into closer contact with God's word! 

Psalm 19:12-13, "Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression."

David starts verse 12 with a rhetorical question: Who can understand his errors? Answer: Very few people.

Nobody wants to admit when they’re wrong. It’s not in our DNA. It’s so much easier to blame others for our mistakes. Even from the beginning, Adam blamed Eve, and Eve blamed the serpent for their sins instead of taking ownership of them. From that day until now, we continue to play the blame game. We choose to break God’s laws and then act as if we haven’t done anything wrong at all.

So, after one week, do you agree with us that memory is muscle? 

Are you trying to memorize Psalm 19:7-14 with us? If so, leave a comment below to show that you're in.

Today, we're including a free printable of the scripture graphics from this week. Print it out on cardstock or another type of heavy-weight paper, and the images should be about the size of a business card. Cut them out, and use them as flash cards to aid your memorization. Or stick them in your wallet or purse, and thumb through them in your downtime. Another idea: stick them in spots you look often (your keyboard, bathroom mirror, dashboard, fridge, etc.)

We hope you're enjoying these articles and that you're benefiting from the effort of placing God's word in your heart.

Whether you have the greenest of green thumbs or you can kill houseplants by just looking in their general direction, we are all planting spiritual seeds every day. We live in a sowing and reaping system, and that means we eat only what we plant.

Here's a Good Word from the book of wisdom that we think is rather appropriate for April 1. We'll let it speak for itself — and take its advice by keeping today's post short and sweet. 

This weekend, we commemmorate one of the most important tenets of Christianity — the resurrection of our Saviour who died for our sins.

Like many women over the age of 29, we here at the Gospel Blog aren't that great at keeping track of our birthday — or blogoversary. But on March 5, 2012, we debuted our very first article, which just happened to be a showstopping Miracle Monday we got from Sister Cindy Hood. Sister Natalie Shawver (then Pezzenti), Brother Jerry Valenti, and Brother Ron Mazzeo all contributed articles for that first week. We're so happy that God has blessed our little efforts.

Today's Good Word reminds us that if we're suffering in this life, it's only temporary. There is great joy to come, and, in the meantime, we can overcome the "shame" of our trials and troubles by realizing that, in suffering, we identify more fully with Jesus Christ our Savior.

If you don't have today's Good Word memorized — text and scripture reference — then commit it to memory today! What a great reminder in all areas of life, especially those areas where we're struggling to push through, stay the course, or be patient. We can't do it in our strength, so let's stop trying. Instead, let's ask God for His strength, and when we accomplish the goal, He gets the praise!

We hope today's beattitude helps motivate you to sort out the stuff you want to allow in your heart and the stuff you don't.

Today's Good Word is inspired by Wednesday's article. Every day, multiple times a day, we must ask ourselves if we're going to make choices that serve and honor God or the opposite. Let's let our actions reflect our faith!

We pray that today's Good Word brings the pieces of your life into focus. Have a wonderful weekend celebrating the ones you love on the 14th.  

Today's Good Word is inspired by Tuesday's post. What verse are you going to try and memorize this week? Or, maybe the question should be "How long has it been since you actually memorized a verse?" If your answer is "Sunday school when I was 10," then make this image the lock screen on your phone, work at it all week, and try saying it by heart next Friday. Your Power of a Pair partner can quiz you on it. 

Today's Good Word is a reminder to praise God today. As we close the books on the first month of 2016, let's thank the Lord for everything past (bad and good) and everything that's yet to come (bad and good).
