Memorizing Scripture strengthens my faith because faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Christ, and that happens when I am hearing the word in my head.

Whether your life is great or you are in the midst of turmoil, God loves you. The more you imprint the words of God in your life, the better your life becomes. You realize that His grace is sufficient, and Lord Jesus Christ died for you! There is no way to the Father in the Kingdom of God without the blood of Jesus.
