what is your fave bible verse? - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

hullabal98 · 04-20-2011, 08:20 PM

trying to think of a verse to have inscribed for my daughter's first birthday next month (she is receiving a bible). not technically a request for prayer, but figured this would be the best place to post!

we are Catholic; and she has already been baptized.

This may or may not be the best for this, but it's one of my personal favorites of late:

Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Thats exactly what I was going to say! My fave lately is Romans 8:28

Wait for the Lord; be strong, let your heart take courage; and wait for the Lord! Psalm 27:14

We can't go wrong if we wait to hear the Lord's wisdom for our life. I have some other favorites but most of mine are convicting or areas where I need reminders in my own life.

What does the Lord require of us? To do justice, love kindness (or mercy depending on translation) and walk humbly with thy God

I think Micah 6:8 ?

When it comes to children, I love 1 Samuel. I am going to frame this and put it in my daughter's room.

1 Samuel 1:27-28 NIV
27 I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. 28 So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD.”

These are my 2 favorites, but they may not be appropriate.
In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps. -Proverbs 16:9
Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father? No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. -Hebrews 12:7,11

My absolutely favorite is Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
