Quote of Contemplation

"In case your thinking, 'But I can't memorize Scripture! I've tried, and it just won't work for me,' I was recently in a friend's home whose pet parrot sang "The Star Spangled Banner" in its entirety for me! As I stood there, amazed at what I was hearing, I thought, 'Well, if a parrot can learn "The Star Spangled Banner," we human beings can all learn to memorize Scripture!' Think of the time it took for a bird to learn the melody and tune of such as complicated song! Surely you can learn a verse or two from God's Word! If you do, your filled heart will be a source of encouragement to many!"
- Elizabeth George
