Which verses are most helpful to you in turning you from your sin back to the Lord?  There are many more that are not shown here, particularly in the Psalms and Proverbs that you could add.  Write them down, and create a table with the verses written out and key words and thoughts highlighted, as has been shown over the previous few days.  Taking the time to create this table of scripture and reviewing it daily will do wonders in keeping you from these sins as you saturate your mind every day with God’s word.
