Schedule for Bible Reading: January

Hey, Friends!  I am so excited about reading through the Bible this year. Will you join me?  Each month, I will post a reading schedule and I will also post my own study notes at times.  Truth be told, I will probably start out strong and stumble along toward the end. No promises as to how often my “notes” will appear on my blog, but I will plan on posting several times a month.  So, let’s do it!  There is no better New Years Resolution we could make!

As I once again begin this annual challenge, my thoughts are on a special friend, Barb Archer.  She was one of the most faithful readers of my blog, and is the one who always reminded me to post the reading schedule.  She faithfully followed the reading plan, even though many of her days were difficult.  You see, she was battling cancer and enduring treatment and yet, her faith and desire for the Word of God never waivered.  She now spends her days where her faith has been made sight.  Though technically, she didn’t get to “finish” our year-long challenge when I began this study, she definitely finished the race set before her.  As we begin this Bible reading challenge once again, my thoughts are on Barb and her victorious “finishing”.  2 Timothy 4:6-8, says:

For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.

Friends, we don’t know what lies ahead in this year.  But we do know Who holds us close, Who holds our future.  May He bless you abundantly with great understanding and fresh vision as you faithfully read His Word!
