Bible reading-week 2

This week, I'd like to challenge you to start a journal. I am going to also. I have been reading a little about them in a book I'm required to read for my class. It is called "Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian life" by Donald Whitney. He is a professor here at Southern. Here is a little from ch.11 on Journaling.

A Journal can help you in your quiet time with the Lord, by helping you to understand more what you are reading, it can help you to evaluate your spiritual walk more, and understand and examine ourselves more thoroughly that we might otherwise do. It can help make our meditation on Gods word more meaningful, it can help us to better express our thoughts and feeling to the Lord, we can remember His good works better, and we can better clarify what we are learning.

"The Journal can be a mirror in the hands of the Holy Spirit in which he reveals His perspective on our attitudes, thoughts, words, and actions. Since we will be held accountable for each of these at the final Judgment, evaluating them by any means is Wisdom!"
-DW

This isn't much, but I hope it will encourage you in your walk with the Lord this week. Remember that you can use any type of Journal, it doesn't have to be "pretty." A piece of notebook paper will do! And even if you choose not to start one...just please be reading your Bible!!! That is the more important anyway.

Here are the chapters for this week, if you are reading through the Bible with me. I do hope that you guys have found a good commentary to use. I have found mine especially helpful this week as we are reading some stuff stuff in the book of Job.

Sunday - Job 32-34
Monday - Job 35-37
Tuesday - Job 38-39
Wednesday - Job 40-42
Thursday - Genesis 12-15
Friday - Genesis 16-18
Saturday - Genesis 19-21

I am so amazed at how much I am learning and am glad for all of you that are praying for me, and doing this with me. In case I ever forget to give you the passages, we are going to finish Job, them move back to Genesis, Exodus, and Leviticus ect...
