Day Seven..SHARE WHAT THE FIRST WEEK OF READING HAS MEANT TO YOU!
Abram and his nephew struggled a "Lot"...get it! They went their separate ways. Abram said you go left and I will go right or vice versa. Lot chose to go toward Sodom and Abram the Land of Canaan. After rescuing Lot, Abram gave a tithe to Melchizadek to glorify God. Can you spell Melchizedek? The Seventh Psalm is pretty gloomy. Obviously, it is better to live for God than to offer to be let your enemy defeat you. Again the Psalms speak to every emotion! David is pretty moody and even downcast in this one. Jesus is tempted by Satan in the Matthew reading. Forty days! Where have we read that before this week? Jesus prevails over hunger, power, buckling under the lure of Satan. Where have we seen Satan make bad look good and good badthis week? Jesus' response is much different than Adam and Eve in the garden or those building a tower in Babel! It is amazing how many correlations there are in the reading this week.
WELL ONE WEEK IS DONE! WHAT HAS THE FIRST WEEK OF READING MEANT TO YOU?

This week of reading has been a test of my commitment with this 365 day journey and I have managed to read everyday. Thank you Philip for the challenge to commit.
I have daily read the Bible because the Lord changed me. He awakes me early each morning to spend time with Him... I was not always willing to rise early before the change. I have read the Bible quickly, slowly, but this is the first with a group. I appreciate each of your views & insights which add to the many insights I gain in each reading. Thanks to all.
