I Hate Being Sick! I think most people will agree with me. I have beensick most the week and have done nothing on my site because of it (evenmy daily study of the book Changes That Heal). I hope to get back on that in a day or so.

Wehave been having a Revival meeting like none other I have ever seen atmy church since Sunday! And when I say different, I mean different.There is no emotional "highs" going on, there is no running up and downthe aisles, or falling on the floor (I am Pentecostal). We have had theLiving Logos ministry at our church, and we have been GREATLY challenged in our walk with the Lord.

You see, we all say (Christians that is) that God's word is alive today, but do we believe it? Living Logospresents the letters of the New Testament as if they were beingdelivered today, by the authors, directly to us, from memory! That isthe purpose of Living Logos, to inspire and challenge us to become hiders of the Word of God, the Logos of God. The Bible says 150 times (according to Living Logos)that we need to hide God's Word in our hearts. This is more than justcramming it into our brains (though I will admit I am not sure Iunderstand the difference yet), but making it a part of our very soul.

Youknow, I have heard things like this before. I have heard it said thatGod's Word alone can change a life. To some extent I believe that, butI am like the father of the son possessed by the demon the disciplescould not cast out. I say "Lord, I 'believe', but help my unbelief."There is a part of my that just does not accept that reading this"book" can change my life (and it does need changing, let me tell you).

Sohere is what I have decided. I am going to memorize a book of the Bible(yes a whole book), till I can quote it as if it was my own writing. Iam going to do my best to do more than just learn the words, but I alsowant to learn the meaning and the essence behind the words. I am goingto challenge God in a way. I want Him to prove to me that this works. Iwant a change in my life that others will see even if I don't see it.Ultimately, I want to see the face of Jesus. So this is my challenge. Iam going to memorize the book of 1 John (NIV translation) and see whatit does in me.
