DAY 13 OF 28

Because of Jesus, we don't have to live in unhealthy patterns.

  • What are some mindsets that hold you back and leave you feeling overwhelmed?
  • Why does God care about how we view ourselves?

Today's passage of Scripture 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.

About this Plan

Restart

In video games, when you face challenges and make mistakes there's always the option to start over. In real life, it's not so easy to recover, but Jesus gives us a chance to restart — no matter how difficult our circumstances. In this 4-week devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll look at people who needed God's help to give them a restart and discover how to trust God's promises.
