2012 Verses

Like last year I memorized a verse each month.  And, like last year, reading back through them all I'm so amazed at how on-point each verse is for that time in our life. 

This year (and part of last) has been rough.  We have been very humbled, confused, scared, and sad at times.  Obviously, there have been many blessings - hello, Aubrey the cutest baby around - but we've had many struggles and low points.  God has used each thing to teach and grow us.  He has strengthened us through His Word and through the love of others.
