Ok, so EVERYONE knows it's important to read your Bible. Some people thinks important daily, and I would have to agree with this statement, but any reading or studying or meditating on the word is great!
I know it's weird now, because recently I have really been all about the walk with Christ and my awesome God, and well... what can I say, it's been one big step and my life has been turned upside down because of the love of my God.
I, lately, have been having this urge, or in Christian-terms, this hunger for prayer and for really digging into God's word and I love it.
It's really made my day, I guess since I have had this hunger I started reading from Ephesians and today I started reading from Galatians. Oh my goodness, ever since my prayer life and well, my relationship with God changed, I read the Word and the things that pop out are extremely crazy and amazingly awesome. I mean come on. I really started reading Acts for the second time this last semester with the organization, InterVarsity, and well my goodness, as I was reading Galatians, Paul was telling the church about his time in Jerusalem and wow. I mean wow. I totally remembered when this story happened in Acts. It was just so surprising that I would remember such a thing. I looked back at Acts and there it was, right before my eyes.
I know this theme is evident in the Bible, this little thing, oh I don't know... LOVE. It's everywhere. I have been marking in my bible with pink sticky notes about where God's love is shown, or in green I believe I mark that He has chosen us for specific purposes and for reasons before we were even born. How crazy.
It's just so amazing once you grow so close to God, how you just want to wake up in the morning and read the word, pray to God, and wait for him to intercede. Oh, it's just amazing to see how God has worked in the past and the promises that lie in this amazing book. It's not just a book that has mystery, murder, wonder, lies, denial, facades, sacrafices... it's so much more than that's it's a love letter from my God and all he has promised to me and my life, my friends, my family, and even to the people I don't know. It's amazing and it's called love and grace.
Praise God for his amazing words.
