Bible in a Year
I have wanted to read through the bible in a year for several years but I’ve never actually done it. Recently I found this and it has been so amazing! Every morning the reading for the day is in my feedreader, and there is also an audio link! At first I was just reading it, but I’ve found that listening while I read helps me to slow my reading down a bit (I’m a notorious speed reader) so I am actually retaining more. At first I was a little annoyed that my life is apparently so tech-y that the only way I can consistently get my Bible readings in is to do it on the computer… but… at this point in life, I’m going to take whatever works! And this is working for me.
In other news, Tristan’s latest word is “hallelujah”. Just a minute ago I was scolding him for taking his socks off again (he’s recently discovered toe fuzz and takes his socks off several times a day to check for it) and he replied to my “Tristan! Your toes are so cold– you need to keep your socks on!” with “Oh! Hallelujah!” I almost burst out laughing. He sounds so holy! It is a pretty hilarious response, you must admit.

That’s really cute what your son said! Are you going to a website to get those chapters or verses or however you are doing it or is it some kind of software you’ve purchased?

No, it’s an RSS feed that shows up in my feedreader (like google reader or bloglines)every day. You can see more about it here:

Thanks for sending that to me! I’ll have to check it out.
Hello Mrs. Sarah,
You made your site simple yet elegant. I see that you would like to draw closer to God. Now is a good time! I recommend the one true God, Jehovah.
I want to help people to really get to know God, especially in these troubled times. Here is an important message for all of us from the Bible: 17 You make God tired with all your talk. “How do we tire him out?” you ask. By saying, “God loves sinners and sin alike. God loves all.” And also by saying, “Judgment? God’s too nice to judge.” (Malachi 2:17) (Message Bible)
so funny. Lets pray those will always be his words. I hope you are doing great.
