Color Words

I like words.

I like colors.

Years ago I got this book and used the system described to mark my scriptures.

Basically these are the colors assigned to the scriptures:

Words of the Godhead
Any spiritual gifts
Parables, allegories, Isaiah quoted
Teaching of prophets, explanations
The storyline, chronology, action
The genealogy, births, deaths, marriages
Praise to God
Travel, geographical info
Words and deeds of Satan

I've used this system through two sets of scriptures and I really like it. I draw a square around each verse number and color it in the color that corresponds to what that verse is about. I like that I can just glance at a page and kind of know what's going on in those verses.

This system kind of expanded over the years to my assigning colors to words.
For example:

Faith
Hope
Charity

Recently My Dear Husband wrote a book. Actually he's written more than one. (One is a Christmas book which is coming out this year ~ there will definitely be more about that later) The most recent book is about "The Divine Nature," where he has written a chapter about each of the Christlike attributes found in the scriptures. It really is an inspiring book.

I was trying to remember all those wonderful words, and so I assigned each word a color, put them in rainbow order and I can recall them better this way:

Charity, Love, Mercy
Obedience, Submissiveness, Diligence
Hope, Virtue, Godliness, Holiness
Temperance, Knowledge
Faith, Patience, Long-suffering
Gratitude, Humility, Meekness
Brotherly Kindness, Gentleness, Easy to be Entreated
Happiness

Then I just threw in some other words that I really like, like the YW values, and their colors:

Individual Worth
Fasting, Prayer, Choice & Accountability
Light, Good Works
Repent, Change, Grow
Divine Nature
Integrity
Joy

So there you have it, my favorite words and their colors.
