It can stand for the verse you quoted as well as the tasks you and Ben have in order to get healthy and get home. I also like "Work the Plan" or " Live the Plan" but that may be too many letters. <br /><br />Won't it be amazing to look at this bracelet 3 years from now and realize all that God brought you though?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-43084376002199968692011-01-16T05:09:11.711-08:002011-01-16T05:09:11.711-08:00NGUNNGU - Never give up, Never, Never, give up!

After my husband died 8 years ago God gave me these three words:<br /><br />FAITH - HOPE - PEACE<br /><br />I knew that I had FAITH that God was still on the throne.<br /><br />I had HOPE because I knew God had good plans for me and my young children.<br /><br />I had PEACE in that I didn't have to have all the answers, but was able to rest knowing that God was in control.<br /><br />Those three words became very dear to me. I still use them in so many areas of my life. Somewhere during the first couple of years I started telling people about the words and had mistakenly replaced PEACE with JOY. When I realized what I had been doing, it seemed so appropriate. I had gone from PEACE to JOY without even realizing it.<br /><br />So listen closely and God will give you your very own word(s) that will carry you through this journey.<br /><br />Neesa<br />faith-hope-joyfaithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10066065977833868651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-15195788069165951002011-01-12T08:04:05.865-08:002011-01-12T08:04:05.865-08:00I read your post days ago and have been putting so...I read your post days ago and have been putting some thought into it before I answered. I am thinking:<br /><br />"Yeshua" or "Jesus" or the same in Hebrew writing<br /><br />for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved and I believe it sums up all that you and Ben stand for as well. I'm more partial to Yeshua because that's what He would have been called while on this earth and it denotes his Jewishness for the Jews were and still are God's chosen people. I praise Him that we have been grafted into His family!<br /><br />Still praying for you both daily!<br /><br />With love in Christ,<br /><br />Denise R. from TexasMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11660616787889096916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-13672620642891575742011-01-12T06:28:45.864-08:002011-01-12T06:28:45.864-08:00You and Ben continue to amaze me!!

As long as we contemplate our troubles, the more convinced we will become of our isolation, our hopelessness, our inability to extricate ourselves from the present trouble. But when we focus on the Lord, we are able finally to rise above, rather than to suffer under, our troubles.Every day presents us with a new opportunity to discover and experience more of God's love. Even in the midst of terrible sorrow, Jeremiah looked for signs of mercy.<br />Great is Your faithfulness: Here is the heart of the Book of Lamentations. The comforting, compassionate character of God dominates the wreckage of every other institution and office. God remains "full of grace and truth" in every situation (Ex. 34:6, 7; John 1:14)."Khttp://www.deliciouslyambiguous.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-31761500427157577982011-01-11T16:54:00.478-08:002011-01-11T16:54:00.478-08:00I like Faith in Italian.

Joseph from Genesis. The story of an unchanging God in a wildly out of control situation. The story of Joseph's faith, perseverence and devotion to the Lord, even when he had no clue about what in the world God was going to do with the frightening situation he found himself in. The story of how God can take something bad and use it for good. The story of how God can raise us from a pit, place us in a high place, and use us for His glory... but only if we are obedient! I want to be more like Joseph! But ya, it may not be what you were looking for in a bracelet. Maybe Gen 27-37 would be better? Maybe "Joseph" in Greek, since that seems to be a hot trend in these suggestions!Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10316460615855758210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-57218519011670875872011-01-11T12:30:14.944-08:002011-01-11T12:30:14.944-08:00Hi!

And nothing but GRACE can fully erase. From my first to my last all my life shall pass through GRACE."<br /><br />Also, you could pick out one of your favorite scriptures and just use the book and verse. I find that if people have to go look it up, they are more likely to remember it. When I was younger, I saw a man with a tattoo that said Phillipians 4:13. I went home and looked up the scripture and I have never forgotten it since.<br /><br />Good luck!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-80359101609739794372011-01-10T22:41:34.815-08:002011-01-10T22:41:34.815-08:00I like together, or benkatie, or courage.I like together, or benkatie, or courage.Robbie https://www.blogger.com/profile/02032003990402174393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-47573396484845747102011-01-10T21:16:40.276-08:002011-01-10T21:16:40.276-08:00When I think of your journey I think of strength, ...When I think of your journey I think of strength, perserverance and faith. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-2299933670499562912011-01-10T18:23:28.327-08:002011-01-10T18:23:28.327-08:00how about: HIS WILL, or WE CAN, or AMAZING, or TOG...how about: HIS WILL, or WE CAN, or AMAZING, or TOGETHER xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090277881332820433.post-21817925354817304632011-01-10T17:46:18.796-08:002011-01-10T17:46:18.796-08:00avere fede
