For a year and a half now, Inspired by Life…and Fiction has been sharing novelists’ gardens with you each Sunday from my blog, The Plot Thickens. Those lovely garden posts are still there for you to browse any time you like, but alas, we’ve come to the end of our supply of new garden posts. But we’re excited to bring you a new Sunday feature, Inspired by Scripture. Each Sunday, thanks to Ken Raney of ClashEntertainment.com (Ken is my talented hubby!) we’ll be sharing a beautiful photo of God’s creation along with an inspirational verse from the Bible.
Watch for this header each Sunday morning here on the blog—and in your inbox if you’re subscribed to our posts each day. (You are subscribed, right? If not, please click on the little gold SUBSCRIBE button in our sidebar so you won’t miss a post!)
You may also sign up to receive ClashEntertainment’s beautiful Verse of the Day photos in your inbox each morning, or you may download the Today’s Verse app for your phone.
We hope you’ll enjoy and be blessed by this new feature.
Do you have a favorite Scripture verse or passage, or one you consider your “life verse”?

Philippians 1:6 is my. Life verse. “I am confident that God will continue the work He started in you until the day Christ Jesus returns.”
That verse reminds me of God’s grace and mercy every time I mess up. ❤️
That’s a good one, Ane! That verse always makes me think of this song: “He… Who… began a good work in you. Will be faithful to complete it…will be faithful to complete it…will be faithful to complete it…” Why is it we remember things so much better when they are set to music? 🙂
I like Paalm 118:24
This is the day the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Amen, Shirley! Every day. No matter what it brings, we CAN rejoice in it because it’s His day!
Mine is Phillipians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me
That’s a great anchor verse, Shelia! And a reminder that apart from Him we can do nothing that matters.
Love the new Sunday header, Deb, and really appreciate you (and Ken) doing this for us. I’m a longtime subscriber to ClashEntertainment’s daily verse, and love the reminders of His Word…and the pictures! Both are beautiful. Psalm 34:18 is a fave.
Thanks so much, Tammy! That’s a great verse, too. Especially when we are brokenhearted! Love you, friend!
Great idea, Deb (and Ken)! We can all benefit from being inspired by Scripture (at least I sure can). 🙂
I have many, many favorite verses, but one in particular is Colossians 3:23:
AND WHATSOEVER YE DO, DO IT HEARTILY, AS TO THE LORD, AND NOT UNTO MEN.
Hugs, Patti Jo
I will miss “The Plot Thickens” but look forward to your new venture. Thank you for all the wonderful gardens presented as well as a glimpse into the writing spots of our favorite authors.
