@Mayflower Those 'hiding place' and 'refuge' verses in the Old Testament are very precious! :)

@Nancy My Q wasn't well phrased, but clearly you don't see a connection with smoking regular cigarettes and marijuana: apples and oranges.... There indeed probably isn't a connection.

@Ziggy: Could have been phrased differently, I am sure...

@MatthewG YW. It's good to try to encourage one another in these forums... (Another good verse is meditating on the activities of Acts 2.42...)

@MatthewG I guess it hinges on whether you ideally would want any ink in future to have a real meaning there that related to your faith and could be a talking point. If there's a parlor near you, a ball park quote could at least crystalize in your mind and intention whether you would eventually...

@MatthewG There can be great benefit to meditating verse by verse in the Gospels; there is something very fresh about them.

PS: @Wynona You are absolutely right indeed to highlight the use to which the Bible verse tattoos are going to be put. The tattoo parlor can in some circumstances provide a joyful experience for the motivated believer. But the wearer must in the first place want the joyful Bible verse inking...

Hi @Ronald Nolette Hoping your convalescing is going well....

@soul man I love the Abba, Father, in Romans 8... :)

@prism All the young ppl that I have talked to with Bible verses tattooed seem to have had it done as an evangelical tool, anyway... In the context of what GodsGrace rightly says: GodsGrace said: ↑ it seems to have become a sought after tool to use, by young Christians.

This is why true prayer and Scripture meditation and fellowship are so important...

@Wynona Out there lukewarmness can be a problem, can't it? this is why prayer and the Scriptures and fellowship are so important....

@Wynona So are you guys both increasingly convinced of this now?

@Taga Chan FYI....another thread I started...

@jessiblue Great ref. to 1 Corinthians 15.58 there! :)

@Taga Chan Great Psalm verse there! Ties in with: dailyverses dot net

@Taga Chan I do love Colossians 2.9, about the Lord Jesus: "In Him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily". All true spirituality resides in Him.
