My daughter was telling me about this web site that she came across a few weeks ago.
I didn't realize there was a birthverse that is for the date that you are born. My birthday is August 24th so this is my birth verse:
Romans 8:24 NIV
For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has?
Go here and check and see what your birthverse is and add it to this discussion.
http://birthverse.com/mybirthverse.cfm
Let's see how many have the same birthverse. Share with me what you think of your birthverse as well. For me I thought mine was very fitting! Hope has always been something that has gotten be through my life thus far.

Hebrews 10:22 NIV
let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.
It's the first time I have heard about a birthverse. That was really great! Thank you very much for sharing the link. I would definitely share the link to my friends too!

Thanks for sharing your birthverse. You even used the mylot code to make it stand out. I haven't gotten in the habit of using the codes yet, but it sure made a difference when you used it! I've requested your friendship!

Some other person on mylot posted that link in her discussion and I thought it was really cool. Some kill joy gave her trouble about posting the link, but everyone else thought it was cool. I hope people who didn't catch that link can catch yours.

It shouldnt' have been deleted. The only thing I can think of is that the 'kill joy' I mentioned, was very offensive to anyone who had anything to with Christianity. I wouldn't think that would get the entire discussion deleted. More likely the author just didn't tag the discussion. I'm glad you reposted the link though. I forgot my birth verse. I bookmarked it on my favorites, but I need to go look it up, lol.

Here it is for March 1st:
I John 3:1 NIV
"How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God! And that is what we are!"
-I think that is a good one for me. So often I feel like a piece of nothing, partly due to being bipolar, but sometimes I just feel like I'm taking up space. But this is a reminder that we are SO special that the Almighty God wants to claim us, me, as His own.

My daughter said this is where she saw it posted, but I did a search before I started this discussion and it didn't pull up anything. Was the discussion deleted?
By the way what is your birthverse?

Rev11;15 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet and there were loud voices in heaven which said the kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of the Lord and his Christ and he will reign forever and and ever" This is my birthverse and a lovely one at that. What a nice discussion.

Mine is:
Proverbs 12:25
An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up.
I don't know why, but this does seem fitting for me. I can't even explain why. Interesting though.
I like Proverbs :)

John 10:30 NIV

I like that birthverse for me.
I had never heard of birthverse either. It could come in handy for birthday greetings instead of just writing "Happy Birthday, Love,..." on a card. It would be a nice touch to a birthday greeting. Thanks for pointing this out.

Romans 8:15 NIV
For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
You are a child of God, His treasured possession. He created you in His own image. He chose the day for you to be born. He has a plan and a purpose for your life. Cherish your birthverse.
BIRTHVERSE consists of 366 verses chosen from the 66 books of the Bible. Each verse correlates the chapter and verse with its month and day.

Hello Terri0824,
What an interesting link!
The birthverse provided for me is:
"And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man."
I'll ponder this a bit, and see if I can glean what
lesson(s) may be found within. Initially, I read this two different ways. Though, to provide context, I think that I should read the related passages.
Thanks for sharing -- this reminds me of a very old belief that when one needs guidance they can blindly open any book, and wherever the eye falls, can be found the guidance that we seek.

hi thanks for sharing this new information. i never knew there was so i really appreciated this new site.
John 8:12 NIV
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
After reading mine it means i am in a sort of lost. hmmmm..... well depends on what lost. but i think i am not lost. Nice verse. Actually I have heard it many times.

Hi terri, I come to know this after reading your discussion. Thanks for your daughter and you as well for willing to share with us the interesting birthverse site here with the link provided. I had gone through the site and here share with you mine as follow:
Hebrews 11:1 NIV
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
Happy posting and have a nice day.

Titus 1:2 NIV: a faith and knowledge resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time,
I am now going to go look up the rest of my family to see what thiers is.
