Your Bible is your field manual. Your canteen. Your sword. You can't survive spiritually without regularly reading it, drinking the living water it provides, and learning to use it in the battle of life. Yet many of us struggle to read our Bibles. It's hard to understand. Hard to enjoy. Hard to find time to even try. However, hard as it may be, you can do it. And you must. And like everything else that is difficult and wonderful, the more you work at it, the better it gets. Remember, at one time in your life, walking was hard. Reading was hard. We learn to do these things because they are essential to life. Reading your Bible is essential for your spiritual life and you can do it.
Here's a basic process you can try as you get acquainted with your Bible:
1. Pray
2. Read
3. Research
4. Reword
5. Respond
I'll be explanding on these five steps in the days to come.
