Reading yet?
We have started our Read Through the Bible in a Year emphasis. I am already enjoying sitting down each morning and spending some time with the Lord and reading His Word. If you have not had a chance to get started yet, I would encourage you to do so. Just log onto our website, address link to the side of this blog and go to the "Spiritual Growth" page. There you will find a link to the RTB 2007 resources. As we are reading together I would like for us to dialogue about what we are learning.
This morning I was encouraged to be obedient. The obedience of Noah in Genesis chapter 6, and Jesus' teaching about obeying not just the letter of the law, but also finding the heart of the matter. Then in reading about Jospeh and how he was obedient to do all that God commanded him in regard to taking care of his family.
I prayed and asked God to help me see how I can be more obedient to Him in this new year. I am excited about our journey together. What are you learning so far?

I found that in the reading of Genesis chapter 10/11 that the Babel Crisis was one item that really jumped out at me. The reason for the action of God was because the people refused to obey God in going abroad to replenish the earth. So God fixed it so they had to scatter abroad. I think for me it is a good reminder that abroad is all around me and that I need to always remember to step out of the comfort zone and share his word with others. As I look back I have had opportunities that He has put before me that I have failed to respond to. I think the reading will help everyone in different ways as God will pick out what is necessary in each of our lives as a focus and help us to grow in those areas.
