"But whoever looks closely into the perfect law that sets people free, who keeps on paying attention to it and does not simply listen and then forget it, but puts it into practice—that person will be blessed by God in what he does." (James 1:25 Good News Bible)

Because the three-year-old, four-year-old, and five-year-old grandboys had a hard time sharing and getting along over Christmas, I asked the Lord's advice for a more peace-filled family beach vacation in June.

God's advice: "Hide My word in their little hearts." (Psalm 119:11)

So, the Glassco Family Bible Memorization Beach Trip Challenge begins today. Each week leading up to the trip, Memaw will send a Bible verse via Groupme for each household to memorize as a team. At the beach, each team will receive a cash reward for every Bible verse quoted to Memaw, and the team hiding the most verses in their hearts wins the grand prize. 

Week #1 verse:

"In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets." (Matthew 7:12)

What about you, beloved? Take the challenge. Memorize Scripture, and win the spiritual blessings of hiding God's word in your heart.
