Week number 2

Our second week is upon us, and I trust that you are enjoying your time in God's Word.  I personally have really enjoyed the schedule. In the past, I have felt rushed and pressured to read to check off a list, but because this reading schedule is lighter than I am used to, I have enjoyed digging deeper.  I feel like a student again, and I love it. Most days, you can find me with a great spread of materials in front of me as I dive in.  I am journaling and color-coding in my new ESV journaling Bible (I love having a clean slate!)  To my left is my NKJV John MacArthur study Bible, to my right are my materials and books for looking up the names of God in context, and spread out somewhere else in front of me are my computer and colored pencils.  It has just been an exciting journey for me so far.  Thank you for your part in that!

How does your "space" look?  Do you have coffee in hand and your feet propped up?  Are you at a desk?  Are you cozy or decked out for the day?  Do you have toddlers hanging on your legs, begging to be held?  However it looks, I trust that God is teaching you much and that you are excited about what He has in store for you this year.


Days 8 - 14 

Day 8 - Genesis 10-11
Day 9 - Genesis 12
Day 10 - Genesis 13-14
Day 11 - Genesis 15
Day 12 - Genesis 16-17
Day 13 - Genesis 18
Day 14 - Flex day (catch up, dig deeper, etc.)

I am hoping to soon have the entire schedule available for you to download so you don't have to come here multiple times in the week.

Happy growing!

Thoughts on Leviticus

I just finished Leviticus last night, and I wanted to share some thoughts. First, I was glad to be reading Leviticus at Easter time.  Christ's sacrifice was complete!  It is finished!  Once for all!  A definite contrast to all the requirements for each sacrifice!  Hallelujah for the cross! Also, I was struck by God's grace.  In Leviticus chapter 8, "The Lord spoke to Moses saying, 'Take Aaron and his sons with him' ...and Moses brought Aaron and his sons … and anointed him to consecrate him." Aaron and his sons were chosen for the priesthood -- a high and holy calling!  What was Aaron doing in Exodus?  Do you remember?  He was organizing and leading the worship of the golden calf.  He was weak.  He succumbed to the will of the people and led them in idolatry.  YET, God still chose to use him for such a sacred purpose.  I LOVE this!  None of us are too far from God's grace to be used for His glory.  He can red...

Showing Up (Job 1-2)

If you are still following along in our Bible reading schedule, you know we are into Job.  So much can be said of Job, and we will get to that; but today, I want to touch on Job's friends. This past fall I read a book with a group of friends, Just Show Up by Kara Tippetts. The book was an easy read, but challenging at the same time as I was quickly emotionally pulled in.  The women who partnered together to write this book authored it at a very difficult time in their lives.  Their transparency gives us a raw look at walking through suffering with those who are hurting.  I found it to be a great tool in how to love others in their darkest moments. So let's talk about Job's friends... The first thing I noticed about these men was that they each came from his own place.  I am not a geographical scholar.  I have no idea about the distance these men lived from Job, but I do know that they showed up.  I live in a metropolitan area.  Most...

Genesis 12 - A Lack of Faith in God

How often am I guilty of it?  How permeated is my Christian walk by this sin?  How devastating are the consequences? Abram was afraid.  He thought the Egytians would kill him and take his beautiful wife.  And so.... he devised a plan.  He would pretend she was his sister.  They could pull it off.  They could handle this by themselves. Only they couldn't.  God is holy.  God is just.  God wanted better for Abram and Sarai.  He afflicted Pharaoh's house, the truth was discovered, and there were consequences. You know where I'm going with this, right?  What are you afraid of?  What situation is going on in your life right now that is causing you to devise a plan?  What situations are you trying to manipulate?  What are you planning to pull off?  What are you handling by yourself? Friend, your plan may look good.  It may seem to be working, but God has better for you.  He loves you.  He des...
