What is your favorite Bible verse and why?
All of us have certain Bible verses that speak close to our heart. Or maybe one verse speaks to you more at a certain time in life; depending on your circumstance or need at that time. Is there a specific Bible verse that has gotten you through a difficult time in life?
My favorite verse comes from the Gospel of John. It has spoken to me in times of trouble and doubt. And it has encouraged me to stand firm in my beliefs and keep going forward. I was born disabled; with no arms or legs. So, why this is my favorite Bible verse is pretty obvious. It gives me my answer to the question, "Why?"
John 1; 1-5 (NLT)
1As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. 2"Teacher," his disciples asked him, "why was this man born blind? Was it a result of his own sins or those of his parents?"
3"It was not because of his sins or his parents' sins," Jesus answered. "He was born blind so the power of God could be seen in him. 4All of us must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent me, because there is little time left before the night falls and all work comes to an end. 5But while I am still here in the world, I am the light of the world."
