Birth Verse: Everyone has one. What's yours?




Just a few days ago I discovered this interesting website, called Birth Verse. Birth Verse is a book of 366 verses from 66 different books in the Bible.

All Scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. - 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Bob Harju is the creator of Birth Verse. He owned a greeting card company and he prayed for God to give him a new assignment. An employee at his greeting card company, Cindy James, was also praying for God's direction on a new assignment. She noticed that the chapters and verses in the Bible could easily correlate to months and days of the year.When they discovered that they were thinking the same thing, they new it was a sign from God and so they created the wonderful Birth Verse! 

"Aren't there a ton of Bible verses that correlate to my birthday?", your probably wondering. Yes, there are, but a team of special people made lists of all the verses for your birthday (For example, if your birthday is March 3rd, than your Birth Verse could be any chapter 3 verse 3 verse), then narrowed the lists down to just one verse unique to you (and all the other people who share your birthday!).

Once you find your Birth Verse, you can buy products with your verse on them! Bracelets, necklaces, cards, and key rings are all available to buy online.

My birthday is December 2nd, and my Birth Verse is: Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning it's shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. - Hebrews 12:2

Today's Birth Verse is: Therefore, as it is written: Let him who boasts boast in the Lord. - 1 Corinthians 1:31

Today is actually my Dad's birthday, so that's his Birth Verse. Happy Birthday Dad! 

I've only really seen a few of the 366 verses, but I can already tell what the focus is. Put your faith in the Lord, stay Faithful Always!

God Bless,

Sydney
