I'm so thankful for Memory Monday and the accountability this dear group holds. If it weren't for you, I feel certain that I would not have been writing and reviewing these 8 verses this week. Thank you for encouraging me! From memory:Psalm 119:11 Your word I have treasured in my heart, that I may not sin against You.

Sweet, sweet memories of a Christmas when we had NO money to spend for presents or a tree! When The Salesman told me we had no money for a tree, I ...
