"I am typing this with my eyes."

The typist was Wesley Harville, a disabled pastor in Arkansas afflicted with ALS. Harville was seeking a publisher for Meditate Therein Day And Night: A Scripture Memorization Plan.

"I have no use of my legs, my lung muscles are weak which greatly limits my speaking abilities and my arms and hands are almost useless. I cannot use a standard keyboard or phone. I am typing this with eye recognition technology. Yes sir, I am typing with my eyes."

Physically, Wesley Harville may be knocked down but spiritually he's standing up on the inside as he runs with patience the race thatset is before him.

There is no substitute for meditating and memorizing God's Word and there is no shortcut to having it dwell in us. Nevertheless, Harville has developed a passion-filled plan that is purposeful and practical. The value of God's Word can never be overemphasized, and learning it should never be diminished. Use this book to hide God's book in your heart. Take advantage of the labor of another man who desires to help others in their labor for the Lord.

During his seminary days Wesley began to see how memorizing Scripture could help someone hide God's Word in their heart. Wesley and his wife, Sherrie, began to memorize God's Word together. They put together a way to memorize Scripture that worked well for them. Now, Wesley wants to share that system with others.

"Today, my friend, Wesley, has experienced the death of his faithful companion, Sherrie," shares pastor/teacher Mark Thornton. "He must suffer from ALS without her by his side, which may be more painful than ALS. Yet, he finds the willpower, determination, and fortitude (known as guts in Arkansas) to do all he can from his wheelchair for the Lord Jesus Christ, whom he deeply loves. This book is a product of that love.

"Unanticipated, unexpected burdens," related Dr. John Dee Jeffries, CEO/Acquisitions Editor, Published By Parables, "often give birth to unanticipated, unexpected blessings. In a circumstance that would cause many to give up, throw in the towel and succumb, Wesley has persevered and written this book - to honor Christ and to bless you. We are pleased and proud to publish Wesley's gift to God and the people of His Kingdom. We look forward to publishing Book Two, the next book in the series."
