Working in my Bible.

Today, I came home from work and decided to give into some sadness and issues I'm having. But then I just felt worse! Isn't that just how it goes! Ugh! We try and do things on our own because the answer isn't right there! But God knows the answer. He knows all the answers. Every. Single. One. He sees the entire flight: take off, flight time, landing, every passenger, every place the planes shadow passes. All we see is the few minutes it's above our heads. Squinting into the sun, sometimes wishing we were going somewhere.

Feeling so philosophical and wishing I could take back all the things I did when I got home, I decided to take out my planner and Bible and get to gettin'. I often feel overwhelmed at work and write down quotes and bible verses that speak to me. I use Pinterest, Tumblr, and Twitter to get inspiration. To get my little dose of faith while I am at work. 

Tonight I took all those verses I had saved and scribbled down and went through my bible and underlined them. I have a special green pen I use and several bookmarks that I have added. I like my bible. The only thing I don't like is the cover, but there are worse things, as well as more important things. And looking through my bible really gave me an interesting feeling. I want to read the bible. My dad has always told me that when he enters an argument or discussion he likes to know his facts. Well, I want to know my facts and read the bible and grow in knowledge of my faith. And it's never good to follow something blindly.

I want to have all the knowledge I can have before I start and continue to believe. Maybe I will have some of my questions answered as well. It will give me the chance to find my beliefs, my specifc beliefs, while versing myself in the bible.


Now I am going to commence some research to find a comprehensible and doable "Read the Bible" plan.

Update to come.
