It's been crazy. Life that is. Crazy. I started on this journey of reading through the new testament in 30 days. Can I say.... I love it! I have never done a straight read through before. My entire bible reading experiences have always been focused on a study. Reading a passage, meditating (marinating :) in it, and really studying it. Well, for the past 2 weeks i have just been reading. I have missed so much of the message. I know this sounds crazy, but it's true. I have missed the entire BIG picture of each of the books. I am not studying different passages but reading. I love it! Honest I do. I think my favorite book thus far has been Acts. Acts is such a boy book. In the one book you have prison, prison breaks, shipwrecks, snake bites, trials, killings, crazy languages, etc... all of this was taken in (by me) with in a 2 day period. So good... so good. The main thing from acts was ACTION!!! get it? The book of acts has action but deeper than that; the book also has the underlying message that being a believer is action. Faith without deeds is dead. One has to act. It's not the book of prayers, ideas, or situations, but the book of ACTS.
I have really been looking at the current situations in my life. I'm on the pause button. Waiting again. Not sure what to do or where to go. God has revealed to me that the more read his word, the more i know his word, the more I know his will for my life. I have to KNOW THE BOOK to know him and know his will for my life.
