Memory verses

Last week, the workteam from Tulsa challenged our campers with some memory verses. Their theme was "Souled Out" and the verses all reflect people who were, at one time at least, 'souled out' for God. It was a good reminder...and it was awesome to hear the campers all week quoting Scripture! At least 60 of them memorized all of them....that's 60 children who are now a little more equipped to face the trials they will be going home to....Praise the Lord!!
I'm trying to improve my Scripture memory, so I will try to keep track here (so don't hesitate to keep me accountable!).....

Souled Out....."Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all of your soul and with all of your mind and with all of your strength." Mark 12:30

Adam and Eve....."so God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them." Genesis 1:27

Noah: Obedient to God's Commands...."Thus Noah did; according to all that God commanded him, so he did" Genesis 6:22

Esther: Queen of Persia....."For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish." Esther 4:14

David: Man After God's Own Heart......"For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart" 1 Samuel 16:7

Daniel: Wise Man of God....."But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself" Daniel 1:8

Jesus: Hope, Healer, and Savior....."The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. i have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10:10

Paul: Follower of Christ...."For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain." Philippians 1:21
