How are you all doing on Memory Monday? I am loving the accountability. This week, I put the first two cards on a kitchen cabinet and I've carried the current card with me. I am using a set of deck of 52 playing cards that our church had memory verses printed on for our church wide Embrace The Word campaign.

Isaiah 45:5This is the second time I've typed this verse, the first time, I slaughtered it and realized, I needed some more work. I decided to get the punctuation right too.
