dont judge the Bible by its name.

The Bible. i dont like reading in general therefore i dont like reading the Bible. My Bible was given to me in 2007 as my birthday present. At the time my reaction was, "another Bible, u got to be kidding me." 07' was when i was in 7th grade so of course that would be my reaction. & it could be my reaction today, but only because i hav all the Bibles i need to last me a lifetime.

Recently ive been in an extrememly bad mood & been going through alot. i feel God has been putting alot of things such as simple Bible versus on my friends profiles on facebook or just a topic that came up during a conversation that made me curious to look up in the Bible. My Bible has an index in the back where there are reading schedules of different topics or encouragement versus that you could read in the period of 30 days daily. It also has a section of topics of problems you might be going through & you can look up verses to help you with that. That is something that soo cool. Now i can appreciate why the Bible is so important, because has an index of things that you could simply look up & get help on from God's word just like a dictionary.

The Bible in my definition, is the Encyclopedia of your faith. It is a beautiful thing. Im thinking right as i write this, that God maybe is giving me a pretty horrible week just for the sole purpose of me picking up my Bible once again or it could be something else, but it did help me pick up my Bible for once in a really long time. I am very thankful for that. Regardless if it was planned or not, im saying thank you Lord. Although now i have reasons to now look up problems in the Bible or topics, ill still have to overcome my laziness, so im going to pray to God for opportunities to help me pick up my Bible & start reading.

Praise God & his ways of bringing you back into the walk.
