Isaiah 14:1 - Jer 33:22
Congratulations!
All participants who are up-to-date with their reading have reached the halfway point in the program during the past week! Keep up the good work!
Personally, it’s going a lot faster than I thought it would and I really look forward to reading each day’s 12 pages.
Last week part of our reading assignment was the Book of Proverbs.
According to The Essential Bible Companion, “The purpose of Proverbs is to collect the wisdom of ancient Israel, offering insight into the wisdom that results from fear of the Lord."
This book is a personal favorite of mine because it contains what I consider my “life verse”. I came upon this term recently and it’s defined as a Bible verse that means so much to you that you find yourself referring to it again and again.
That verse for me is Proverbs 3:5,6 – “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” NIV
That verse has gotten me through some pretty tough times over the years.
What is your “life verse”? Have we gotten to it in our BIND reading yet?
Throughout these remaining weeks of reading, please pray for all of the BIND participants and leaders as we continue on this journey together of attentively reading every word of the Bible.
