“The entrance of your word gives light; it gives understanding to the naive.”

Nine Affirmations (Precious Promises)
“These are verses that I personally selected and have Memorized.
When I pray them (nearly every day), I only pray the verses themselves — not the Headings and Verse References.
Because they are such “precious promises” (2 Peter 1:1-4), I quote them so often that Lay Monk Linda asked me to write all nine down on Memory Cards for her to Memorize.
Index Cards cut into four pieces work great for this. I wrote each Verse on one side of the Card, and its Scripture reference on the back.“
“…think on these things.”
-Philippians 4:8
-Lay Monk Preston

having escaped the corruption that is in the world from evil desires.”
