Is there a particular verse of the Bible with which you connect?  Do you have a verse that you say often or think of often?  I’m just wondering if anyone has a theme Bible verse, one that gives both comfort and encouragement while at the same time strengthening your commitment to Christ.  There are several verses to which I find myself coming back.  Jeremiah 29:11 continues to resurface for me reminding me that God is bigger than any storm I might face or any unknown path I may encounter.  “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and give you a future.”  I must say though that lately another verse has been rising to the surface of my mind just floating up to my consciousness.  I used it recently in a children’s sermon.  “O taste and see that the Lord is good; happy are those who take refuge in him.” Psalm 34:8  I can’t explain why this verse is so present for me now, but I am trying to use it to remember to savor the goodness of God.  And I must say I am discovering new ways in my life that God is good.  I am thankful for those moments and that I can experience God in new and old ways.  So I invite you to please share with me which verse or verses are ever present in your mind.
