Seed for Sowing – 2007

Each month we choose a passage of scripture to emphasize and encourage the memorization of God’s Word. This is where you should begin, not end, as you memorize and hide God’s Word in your heart. These are seeds for the increase of righteousness, growing you in Christ-likeness, helping you to increase your seeds for sowing to others the Word of God for His glory.

(Each of the following passages is quoted from the English Standard Version.)
