Hi Everyone!
Hope your New Year is starting off well. I know in our family, this is the first week with all schedules back full swing--back to full time work, full time school, full time life!
Just wanted to share with you a neat little something I ran across today. It is a Bible-marking system that is so very simple, but I thought at the same time so very neat!
In a nutshell, you will need three highlighters to do this--one yellow, one blue, and one green. As you are reading verses in your Bible this year, if you see a verse that is describing the character of God--mark that verse (or part of verse) yellow. If you find a verse that talks about God's will for your life--this would include instructions, commandments, or counsel--mark that one blue. The last category you look for is promises of God for you--those get marked green.
Here is an example of what the popular verse John 3:16 would look like using this method:
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son (God's Character -- Yellow), that whosoever believeth on Him (God's Will -- Blue)should not perish but have everlasting life." (God's Promise -- Green) John 3:16
That's it! Pretty simple, isn't it? But it is supposed to help you really look at verses in a new way. I haven't tried this yet, but I am certainally thinking about trying it!
I learned about this Bible marking method from this web site, if you would like to read more about it:

Let me know if any of you have tried this idea before, and how you liked it. Or if you haven't tried it, what do you think of it? I would love to hear from you! :)
