What If...Pavyzdys

• Walking humbly with God includes rest. How does that change how you approach connecting with God?
• How might choosing occasional rest help you pursue justice and mercy in the long term?

Today's passage of Scripture, Micah 6:8, is short and easy to memorize. But we don't memorize Bible verses so we can win some kind of Bible-know-it-all contest. We memorize important passages of Scripture because we want God's words to be easy-to-access when we really need them. We'll come back to this same memory verse every week!

STEP 1: Write as much of the passage as you can remember off the top of your head. Don't worry if you get some of it wrong!

STEP 2: Read the passage again. Spend a few minutes trying especially hard to remember the words or phrases you missed. When you think you've got it, try again! And write slowly—it will help.

STEP 3: Choose a memorization hack to try today. Then keep practicing throughout the day.

• Write the passage on a rubber band and wear it on your wrist.
• Make it your phone's lock screen so you see it over and over again.
• Sing it to the tune of your favorite song.
• Read it and repeat it out loud.
• Grab a bunch of LEGO bricks and write each word or phrase on each one. Stack the LEGOs to build the complete passage.
• Write it on a sticky note and attach it to your mirror so you see it every day.
• Or add your own idea here:

STEP 4: At the end of the day, come back and try writing it down one more time.
