Is there a Scripture verse you’re having to put into practice these days?
“Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult,
but with blessing,
because to this you were called
so that you may inherit a blessing.”
1 Peter 3:9 (NIV)
This was my LPM Scripture Memory verse for these two weeks. I borrowed it from Beth – whose devotion on this verse was a true blessing from the Lord. He’s giving me some present opportunities to put this Scripture into practice, and I’m so thankful for His strength that comes when we draw the Sword in a battle.

Love your post today. One of my favorite illustrations using the garden.
Stop by my blog for a visit.
Though I am relativity new to blogging, I am loving all my new friends.
I am giving away my first EVER BLOG PRIZE.
I own a gift basket business and it is the most requested gift over the last 15 years.
From the comments I have already received, appears to be something a little different and something anyone could use. I have been so touched by the comments that I have decided to give 2 boxes. They will be the $100 deluxe size.
I really do want to bless people!!! I want my blog to encourage others. I have decided that giving is life at its BEST. The drawing will be Saturday!
