"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Tim. 3:16-17
3 YEARS:
I remember the first time I tried to read through my Bible (2007), I failed miserably. Again and again, I would try and fail... But I wouldn't give up! I resolved to keep trying until I completely read through my Bible in ONE YEAR! Now this year, I am finishing up my THIRD year of Bible reading! I am resolved to read it through every year til the rapture comes! I want to see how many years of Bible reading I can do. :D
MY OWN BIBLE:
My family came from the Soviet Communist time in Ukraine. My grandpa was in prison twice for being a Baptist pastor. My mom's family was persecuted for their faith for most of her childhood. They had only ONE Bible for the entire Church! They had very little Bible literature. Every few months, the KGB would come and try to take ALL the Bibles/Bible Literature that they owned. Knowing this and hearing all the stories, I am grateful, beyond grateful for my BIBLE! It's my own and I can read it anytime I want! :)
LEARNING/TRAINING:
Every time I read my Bible, I discover something new! It's like I am putting together this BIG puzzle and each one piece with its fine ornate details make the whole picture more stunning and beautiful. :) The Bible is beyond valuable to me. I am learning how to be a good wife and mother. I am learning about the science and history of our world. I am learning math and English. I am learning about good health and nutrition. I am learning how to pray, love, and care for others. The Bible not only shows us about our spiritual needs.... but also our physical, emotional, mental needs. It is my best source for wisdom, knowledge, strength, and encouragement!
YOU:
"Read your Bible,
Pray every day,
Pray every day,
Read your Bible,
Pray every day,
And you'll.... grow, grow, grow!!"
