January 13

Today's Reading

What do you think of Genesis today? It's a story of romance. It's also a story of deception. I would love to hear from those of you who are reading this for the first time.



If you can take a few moments, read Matthew and put yourself in the story as one of the characters. For instance, imagine that you are the little girl's dad. What happens as you walk through the story? What do you feel? What are your concerns? Reading the Bible this way has helped me internalize it far more than I did by remaining detached as I read.



I love today's Psalm because it's so real. We can start a perfectly beautiful day and suddenly have things coming at us from all directions. In the chaos, it's easy to forget who is in control. What do you think?



Proverbs today fits the message in Psalms. How do you interpret difficulties? If you see them as enemies you have to conquer, you may never experience the full transformation of your character. If you learn to see them as friends that God allows because He loves you and wants you to grow, you will be amazed at how He changes you from the inside out.
