study the bible

Today I will read for an alloted amount of time that I will decide shortly. Some length of time that I can handle on a daily basis. I shouldn’t have to push myself so hard for this… It’s like working out though. I guess the spiritual self gets out of shape just like the physical, and eventually it will be a breeze. Then it will just be a matter of staying in shape.

So the other day this guy randomly gave me the book of John. he just smiled and gave it to me, and said, “This is a gift for you.” So I’m reading it.

Today I went into a christian book store to see if I could get a job, and I talked to a couple of people who were there. christians are generally friendly people. Maybe I will stop being secretly bitter. Still, I’m going to read it as though I’d never been taught before… when I do.

“Yeah, sorry I didn’t study again today… I’ve just been really busy with some stuff.”

Always putting that bible on the back burner… Not God, really. I still talk to Him. I just don’t read.

The bible, it’s interpreted about a million different ways, and everyone thinks they’re right, so I guess I just got tired of it and decided to think about something else. Well, I’ll keep this little reminder up here, and it won’t let me go.
