Today, December 1, is the International Day of the Bible. Our verse for the day is from Habakkuk, chapter 2, verse 14:
"But the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of God, as the waters cover the sea."
We sang the hymn "God Is Working His Purpose Out" during Sunday's service, the refrain to which ends with this very verse, how fitting! This would be a good day to dig into God's word and, if you are not already doing so, to begin a plan for regular reading of the Bible.
One very easy path into the scriptures is to read a chapter of Proverbs every day. There are 31, so you can read one for the date each day and go through it (you may have to read 31 on the 30th in some months!)
Another very worthwhile approach is simply reading the four gospels, starting perhaps with John. Whatever you read it will bless and enrich you and build your faith, under the guidance of the Holy spirit. God bless you!
