Write Them on the Doorposts . . .

Write Them on the Doorposts . . .

Over at the Dooposts Blog, they are hosting a “Write Them on the Doorposts” Contest. In honor of that I am writing this post to share how we have enjoyed using God’s word on the walls of our home.

It can be as simple as this pull-out from Club, JR. magazine. My son found this print and hung it up in his room. Nehemiah 9:6

 

I placed this reminder on my bedside table, alongside my prayer journal and Bible.

This beautiful reminder sits on our piano. (pun intended)


This lovely print out hangs in my bathroom right above my sink. It’s my daily encouragement.

I have this one hanging in the hallway as a quiet reminder to my children. I simply used a word processor for this one.

In my kitchen, right next to the meal cleanup chart are two verses to help keep me focused on my duties as a wife and mother. I coped and laminated these out of a Bible Study book.

I took teacher display board letters and posted Ephesians 5:15 on the dining room wall so that we could all remember to be careful.

And one of my favorites is Phillipians 4:8 written above my tv. We don’t have regular television, but we do watch movies and the news. We have to always be cautious of what goes in and guard our hearts.

Psalm 100:1-2 sits above my piano. A soft reminder to make a joyful noise, not a loud one. ;)

Why do we find this important? Having a relationship with the Lord isn’t confined into a scheduled quiet time. Good thing, because quiet is not something that happens often around here. Even Bible Study time consists of giggly girls, crying babies, and many questions. God’s desire for us to write “them on the doorposts” is a very practical way to soak in His word everyday right in the middle of our daily busy life.
