Read the Bible through in a year
It is something that I have done in the past. But, for the last five for so years; I kinda hung out on the wilderness. I was a bit ticked off at the whole Church/Christianity thing. I was stabbed in the back by a Pastor and a few of his furry friends. That was five years ago; I believe it is time to move on and get back to the business of being a Born-Again Christian. Not to worry, this is not going to become a raging flying Fundamentalist Blog or anything like that. 😛 I have my beliefs and I tend to keep them to myself. However, as a Christian, and those of you, who truly are — will understand this — I need to read the Bible. To those of us, who are truly converted, it is more than just a book with words. It is manna for our Souls. I know it sounds corny, but it is true. I do not, nor have I ever completely understood the deep spiritual reasons for this — all I know is that it is very true. The Bible is what got me through the truama of 9/11 and was the thing that kept me out of the nut house. I should be able to do this, it is only three chapters per day and additional study as needed. I think I can do this one.
Find a Job
This one might be a little harder to pull off, outside of a Miracle from the Lord. I have, admittedly, been out of the workforce since 2005. Quite bluntly, I have the world against me on this one. But I remain hopeful. Praying helps too.
Buy a car of some sort
Another one that I hope to accomplish. That is tied in with the other one. I had to send my old clunker to the junk yard, too many issues. Besides, it was a Ford! 😉 Anyhow, it’s gone for good. 😥 But hopefully, I can get something else. Having no wheels sucks… 🙁
Well, that’s it for me!
What about you?
One of my resolutions is to ask simple questions. Here’s one:
If you’ve never read the Bible, then how do you know it’s true?
Heh…..
Mary Anne, I have read it through, about 4 or 5 times now. I have been a Christian since 1982. I have known Jesus as my personal Saviour since June 7, 1982. I always hear these people saying that they do not understand the Bible —- my response to that is…STOP TRYING! It is impossible to understand, much less believe the Bible unless you are converted. Meaning, unless you are truly saved, the Word of God, that being the Bible will mean nothing to you.
