Today's Reading
2 Kings: if you were to make and action/adventure movie from the Old Testament, you couldn't do much better than what happened in the days of Elijah and Elisha!
Acts: I am always fascinated at what happened in Lystra. It seems like one minute the fickle crowd wanted to worship Paul and Barnabas; the next minute they tried to stone them. This passage conclude with the missionaries returning home to report back to the church which sent them.
Psalms: may we be the righteous who live under the mercy and protection of God!.
Proverbs: it is amazing to see the effect a positive attitude has on physical healing.

ReplyDeleteAmen, Julie. I read the Bible for understanding and wisdom. I read it for encouragement. What I enjoy most is when it builds my faith. Thanks for reminding me!
