Time for a Plan

In 2012 I went on a journey to read through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Even though I've been in church all my life, I've never accomplished that reading goal, but last year, I did it with the help of YouVersion.com. So today I want to recommend that site to you, if you are not already familiar with it. YouVersion offers many plans for reading, so you don't have to read front to back. In fact, you get to choose not only the plan but the version of the Bible from which you want to read. Today I found new plans that have been posted, and I have started two of them. One is a 12-day study of Ezra, with devotionals from Hillsong Australia. I love the insight from the pastor, and the combination of scriptures is awesome. If you've struggled to be faithful with your Bible reading, this short plan is a great place to start. Of course, I found another one as well! There is a new plan from Billy Graham. It's a year-long plan with daily devotionals, and it can't get much better than Billy Graham! I was really pleased today to find some new plans to give me a fresh perspective on reading. I am already looking forward to tomorrow's readings because starting the day in God's Word changes everything. I encourage you to join the site (it's free!), find a plan that feels manageable, and get started. We will never truly know God, our Father, until we know His Word. Join me in knowing Him more every day! Good luck, and let me know how you're doing. From one student to another, Jean
