"After doing a study on the week's word, I decided that I couldn't just pick one verse. I enjoyed the study so much I picked out my favorites and made a little mini album. My own little concordance to turn to when needed. It has all my favorite verses on the word and it amazes me that each study shows how GOD exhibits the theme and how He shows us how to live a life that follows His example. And the good news: it all leads to eternal life with Him. 2 Peter 1:3-11 "
