I am perfectly incapable of blogging my thoughts. I can't put what I am thinking into words on a silly computer, except for right now, I suppose I am communicating that I am frustrated as to not being able to type anything that sounds the least bit intelligent. You see, my mind sees in pictures. If I were a type of book, I would be the National Geographic one in the very back section of Barnes and Noble, filled with faces of Indian children, Chinese rice farmers, and sheep. If I give you directions from one place to another, they'd consist of 'turn at the Panera Bread' or 'take a left after the church' instead of street names and numbers that I can hardly remember anyways. The trouble is I can't speak in pictures...and you could argue interpretive dancing, but I do none of that....I assure you. I could try to convey my thoughts to you, but they might be a little scrambled at the least. Here goes nothing...
I was thinking...what of favorite verses? How can one verse speak to you over others? I can understand that something like the Great Commission could influence you more than the third verse out of the first chapter in Matthew: aka Jesus' geneology. Is this how different denominations formed? By taking one verse and making it more important or influential than all the others? My favorite verse is Psalm 73:23 because it got me through the muckiest part of my life on earth thus far.
"Nevertheless, I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand."
This verse reminded me that God was (and still is) always by my side through every journey I will ever go through.
That is definitely not all that I have to say, because my mind is a never ending vortex of thoughts and thoughtlessness, but I shall end this "post" by saying: good luck if you endeavor to read my blog and God bless you :)
plus: if you ever see a picture on my blog, it's usually from google :)

Well, I think you did a pretty good job of communicating your thoughts in this post. ;) God just created you differently, and the gift of seeing in pictures. You could always add pictures to your post! About the verses, I don't really have a "favorite verse," but all of them speak to me in different ways. I think since God made everyone so unique, some verses will be more "important" to others simply because we see things differently (like your thoughts in pictures). I'm just so thankful for all Bible verses because they get me through any obstacle-each one for their own purpose. ;) You're not incapable of blogging your thoughts, keep up writing for Jesus!
