Hestia74 is in a state of thanksgiving...
You know you have established a new habit when suddenly you can’t engage in it and you miss it. That’s what happened with my Bible reading while my son was in the hospital for five nights. I stayed with him around the clock, and didn’t leave the hospital in all that time. That first night I felt a very strong need to read the Bible for two reasons: because it is already an established habit and because of the situation I was in. I needed the extra comfort.
I decided right then and there that I will get a smaller Bible to carry in my car always, so when a situation like this happens, I’ll just take it with me and read…

Two nights ago I finished the Gospel of Matthew, and now I’m starting the gospel of Mark. Right away I can tell the differences in both books… the details each writer decided to emphasize are very different one from the other… Of course, that only enriches the reading.

whataboutscience the exercise and Bible reading going well, the journal-not so much...
Started at the beginning, and in Acts right now. I also learned the order of the books of the Bible just this year, which has really helped me a lot in Bible studies or church services so that I can find the right page quicker!

I am a Christian and grew up hearing the Word. This will help me as well as see for myself that it really does say all that it is said to say. I guess the NIV has slot missing so mayby if I finish this then will try the KJV!!

I study the Bible, by looking up the references to each verse.
I look up each scripture I am reading on a subject. Take John 3:16
for example. Please read it. In the middle of the Bible you see books of the Bible and numbers. These are the cross references, to whatever verse you are reading. On John 3:16 KJV The references are…
Romans 5:8- Is. 9:6 look those up. Romans 5:8 look in the middle of
your Bible. under chapter 5 look down at verse 8. The reference is…..Is 53:5 John 3:16 John15:13 Look those scriptures up. Keep on looking up all of the scriptures in every reference. You will then begin to understand more of what God is trying to tell us. Hope this helps.

I’ve been inspired and I’m back to reading the Bible again. I’m not doing any sort of order or study or even really keeping track, but it’ll just be good to get back into reading it again.

More than once already I have read from the Bible and been affected to tears! This had not happened to me before. I used to read only with my head; now I’m also reading with my heart…

As a christian you’d think I’d have read the whole bible, memorized a book and more but unfortunately as a lazy child I never gave the bible much thought or what it really meant to be a christian, and so now that I’m assessing my life and everything I think this is one of my more important goals though being more serious is my primary because it’ll help me accomplish all my goals including this one
