“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!
You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.
And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up
You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes
You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates"(Duet 6:4-9)
Don't you just love these verses. They are so special to me. They give us instruction about God's Nature, How to Love Him, Guiding us in our parenthood, Commanding us in our Personal life and How to decorate the home. So much is packed into these verse; it really should be taken in as a meditation.
Anyway, I took a picture of a way I put verse 9 into practice at my home. Here is my little vanity that my kiddos bought for mother's day for me this year. It's been so fun. Look up and you will see the green wooden reminder: Jesus never fails. How true! What a great reminder!
A friend of mine gave this treasure to me many many years ago and I've had it hanging up in my house ever since. It did get damaged by my little one and on our last move I couldn't find the missing "s" but hopefully it will show up somewhere. :)
I had another friend give me a gift that said, "REJOICE" which I have hanging up in my living room.
In today's world, you can find a lot of art work that has scripture on in. I've even seen pillows, blankets, picture frames, so many options to spread the Love of God all about the home. If you are tight on budget, make your own. I had on my front door for year a typed copy of this scripture, "The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore." (Ps 121:8) Isn't that a good one. So anytime we were leaving the house we would see that verse.
So go out and find those scriptures and hang them all over the walls; it's biblical :).For the Bathroom made the scripture:
"I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well " (ps 139:14)
For my daughter's tea party we hung put these signs which I still have up in my house.
You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

For the kitchen maybe:
"If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat" (2 Thes 3:10)
See how that one will go over.
In Kids area maybe:
"He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?" (Micah 6:8)
Be creative. Have fun. Enjoy seeing scripture reminders all over the home.
The possibilities are endless.
