Take the month of October to contemplate scripture verses each day. Read the verse or verses throughout your day. Quiet your mind and listen to what the Lord is saying to you. Keep a journal and look at how the Lord is working in you, through you, and for you.
Revelation 21:11 New International Version (NIV)
11 It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.
