Everything We Need............

His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 2 Peter 1:3

We sing with our children at church, "Neglect your Bible and forget to pray and you shrink, shrink, shrink".......and while we sing, the children "shrink" until they are laying on their stomachs on the floor. It is such a cute song with such a profound message.

Daily. Bible. Reading. This spiritual discipline has always been a tough one for me. Taking the time to read God's word. And, reading with a focused heart. You can read more about my personal attempts at becoming a regular Bible reader here. It has been about 8 months since I started the Milk, Meat, and Honey daily Bible reading program. I have stuck with it pretty well, and it has been a HUGE blessing in my life. I must have been starving before............but, now I am being fed everyday from many different parts of God's word. Again, if you'd like to know more about Milk, Meat, and Honey go here. This was Ryan's post about it.

2 Peter 1:3 tells us that we can KNOW what to do in our lives to be godly through our knowledge of HIM. There aren't any mysteries. He has laid it out for us in his word. I pray that you will find a Daily Bible Reading program that will work for you. Whatever you choose will be nourishing to your soul.

What gets in the way of you reading His word daily? If you are reading daily, please share the method that works for you. I can't wait to here your comments!

Oh, yeah! The second verse of the song we sing with the children is, "Read your Bible and pray everyday and you grow, Grow, GROW!
