90 Days Through The Bible: Day 43: Psalm 91-120
This section of the Psalms felt a lot easier to summarize, even though it contains Psalm 119 which is over 3 pages in my bible. Reading through the Psalms is not necessarily difficult, but it can be challenging as your brain is constantly switching back and forth between topic, authors and styles. I want...
90 Days Through The Bible Day 42: Psalm 61-90
In my head, I know that the Psalms are filled with songs, but I did not think that I would change my view on a favorite worship song from my youth group days. I always thought that the song Better is One Day talked about heaven, but it is actually speaking about how it...
90 Days Through The Bible Day 41: Psalm 31-60
I feel like the only thing I read is David asking for deliverance from his enemies and praising the Lord for the deliverance. I realize that David had his struggles and trials and they often went to war, but it seemed like a lot of repetition. Now that I am thinking about it, how...
90 Days Through The Bible: Day 40-Psalm 1-30
I fell behind in my reading. I think the days of staying up late and trying to do everything finally caught up with me, so even though yesterday I started my reading, i did not finish it until today and that is okay. Reading the Bible in 90 days is ambitious, especially when you...
90 Days Through The Bible Day 39: Job 29-42
While at the beginning, Job was blameless and righteous, his pride took over. He got so caught up in proving that he did not deserve this, that he refused to be quiet and listen. Calamity and struggles are not always a consequence of a sin; they are also a tool for us to learn...
90 Days Through The Bible Day 38: Job 15-28
Job has been difficult for me. I listened to parts of Job via audiobook and when I finally sat down to do my reading for the day, I had both my ESV and my NLT side by side. I normally have very little issue with comprehending what I read, but Job has kicked my...
90 Days Through The Bible-Job: 1-14
Job loses everything and still refuses to curse God. He mourns, he curses the day he was born, but still has hope in the Lord. I was astounded by how awful Job’s friends were. Despite Job saying that he had committed no sin, they over and over repeated you must have sinned, repent! His...
Day 36: Esther
Esther is my favorite book, my favorite story. On the surface it is a story of a young girl who receives the blessing of becoming Queen of a very powerful country. But just beneath the surface, Esther becomes a story of a woman taking a risk to save her people, of being brave. Out...
Day 35: Nehemiah
It is hard summarizing the large chunks of reading that is required in order to read the Bible in 90 days. I often feel like I am leaving out good details or facts. There is a reason why reading through the Bible in 90 days is just to skim the surface and not a...
Day 34: Ezra
The Israelites have been in exile for years and God told King Cyrus to allow them to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the House of God. After many years and an interruption or two, the temple is finished. God also called a scribe who loved the Law, wanted to share it with others, and...
