Read the bible everyday

I’m doing much better now that I am on a morning schedule. I wake up, brush my teeth, get dressed, get my cereal & read a chapter while I’m eating. It usually times out just right. I read all of Matthew so far and I started on Mark this morning. It really helps me a lot. I’m also a little better at praying first thing when I wake up. I guess being pregnant can contribute to that!

So, should I read the Bible the first thing in the morning or the last thing before I go to bed? I’ve always read the Bible at night lying in bed since I started reading it when I was 13. But I haven’t done so well since I got married. My husband and I read it together about 1/3 of the time, but I’d like to read everyday. I also think I should set aside a time to just read it by myself. Anyone have any suggestions?

I really need to give more time to my Savior, who gave His Life for me. It’s really silly of me to life my life as if this is it. It’s not! There is so much more for those who know Jesus. I want to learn more about Him, but even more, I want to know Him more. I want to be so close to Jesus that I will know what He would do in any given situation. I want to know Him so well that I can talk to Him freely and openly about anything. I want to know Him so well that I can tell others about his personality and love.

My husband and I decided to read one chapter each night – it should take us about 3 and a half years to finish the entire Bible.
