e0Bible Reading

e-Bible Reading Plan

Don’t you just love the poetry of Isaiah? Some of my favorite this week was Isaiah 32: 1-5 – it made me think of the thousand year reign of Christ – when fools and scoundrels will no longer respected – when it is good to be of noble character. I liked Isaiah 33:1 as well – it read like a promise to satan. Chapter 34 sounds like Armageddon. The prophecy mixed with poetry makes Isaiah so unique!

James starts out with a difficult verse – that we are to consider it joy when we face trials because they help us grow. I know that that is true – it has been born out many times in my life – but to actually feel joy about going through the trials – that’s a tough one! James 3:10 is a verse that I need to read often to help me tame the waywardness of my tongue. Anybody else feel that way?

I absolutely love how the Message translates 1 Peter 1:1 my favorite part is “...writing to the exiles scattered to the four winds - not one is missing, not one forgotten. God the Father has his eye on each of you.” I love to read of how I am never outside of God’s view and protection! In this crazy world – that it a good thing!
