If you want to memorize Bible verses I highly recommend Scripture Typer.  The online version is free and the App is inexpensive.  You pick the verses you want, then you can practice typing over them, filling in every other word or typing them from memory.  I recently memorized the Book of Jude (An entire book of the Bible!  OK, it only has 25 verses, but still . . . ).  I had done the first half on my own and the end with Scripture Typer.  I wish I had used the tool the whole time!

Just start small and pick a few verses.  You’ll pick up momentum and confidence, and you’ll be surprised how often God gives you opportunities to use the verses you’ve memorized, either reminding yourself of them or sharing his truth with others.
