Bible Study

For 2017 I’d like to do something a bit different.  I want to journal my day to day walk with God, one entry for each day … all year long ... or as close to every day as I can.  In and around this journaling I will also add articles and Bible studies that I write.

My goal for journaling my day to day walk with God is to share and hopefully inspire you in your walk with God.  In turn, I hope you will share what your walk with God looks like as well.

Walking with God is not just a Sunday thing, it’s an everyday thing and it’s my prayer that by the end of 2017 we can see what this looks like in real, everyday life.

Here’s day 1 of 365 …

Today, being Sunday, is our time to come together with fellow Christians and worship God (Hebrews 10:25).  This morning our preacher gave us an inspiring lesson on setting spiritual goals for 2017, what a timely topic! 

One thing he said that really stuck with me regarding reading and studying God’s Word was that instead of making the resolution to read the Bible through in one year… if that was too daunting for anyone…  make the resolution to just read the Bible every day.  Any amount … just read! 

I checked my spiritual goals list for 2017 and sure enough the goal of ‘daily Bible reading and studying’ was on it.  I’m thankful that the preacher reminded us that some is better than none and it’s better to set small manageable goals than to set big goals that you’re not going to be able to follow through with.
