Reading the Bible in a year
Posted in Miscellaneous musings
This past week, I found and signed up at www.BiblePlan.org. This website lets you choose from several different Bible reading plans and select your favorite Bible translation. Then each day they'll email you links to the current day's chapters, so you can read it online if you want to. I selected a plan that has me reading four chapters per day, two each from the OT and NT, where I'll read the OT once and the NT twice by the end of the year.
I started to read the Bible through last year, and actually wasn't too far from finishing, but I got sidetracked in "studying" instead of just reading. Maybe if I do my daily reading online, I'll get through the whole Bible...it's when I start flipping back & forth following references, and reading notes at the bottom of the pages, that I get bogged down.
Not that there's anything wrong with studying the Bible...I'll do that too, but it will have to be at a different time, so I can complete my yearly goal.
I may end up spreading my daily reading throughout the whole day...maybe log on in the morning, read a chapter, maybe another at lunchtime, another in the late afternoon, and another at night...I guess I'll have to see how it goes.

Hi Rhoda, this is Christy from the FIAR boards. I hope the reason you've not blogged in so long is 'cause you're so busy reading through your Bible! LOL! I really enjoyed reading your entry about your Christmas dinner. You really should blog more. I enjoy reading what you have to say!

I am sending out a "mass apology" to everyone I told about "The Clean Heart, Clean Home Challenge". I have received some comments in regard to leaving the button on people's blogs and I feel the best way to make sure there aren't others who are offended, is to apologize to those I sent the notice to.
I feel just horrible that some thought I was "advertising" in some way when my intention was to share with other homeschoolers what I was offering as encouragement and a way for us to join together.
If you are one who was upset by my post, please feel free to delete it and email me or leave a comment on my page and I will personally apologize. To those who have joined in The Challenge, I'm so looking forward to what the Lord has in store for us and hope we will all be able to bless our families and grow in the Lord through it! Thank you most importantly for seeing my heart. I never meant to disregard anyone's post when I left the comment about the Challenge, and want you all to know that anything you ever have to say to me, whether on topic or not, is more than welcome on my blog. I will also be making a new category on my blog that will list those of you who don't mind getting urgent prayer requests or information from time to time. I hope this way I will be able to avoid upsetting anyone similarly in the future.
Thanks for allowing me to comment on your blog. I hope you will accept my apology (and not be upset that I'm "off topic" from your post, but I have many people to get to still tonight).
In Him,
Amy Verlennich
