I have taken small bits at a time recently to digest one verse at a time. These are chapters or a series of verses that God has laid on my heart that I need to read and study more closely. It always fills me and teaches me immensely and God shows up during those times with more to teach me. I love that you are doing this! I will be praying that we all are able to spend time with God in His word daily. He will teach us and show us His truth when we invite Him into our day.

But there is so much more than we imagine waiting for us in His Word--if only we stop to see what He has just for us.

I so want to "Taste and see that the Lord is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him! (Ps.34:8, NLT). Like you, I want to be changed in the seeing & become more like Him. May we both See more of Him in the days ahead. Blessings!

Here's what I found: Goodness (Psalm 37:23), Love (John 14:21), Faith (Hebrews 11:6), Prayer (Proverbs 15:8), Praise (Psalm 69:30-31), and Right-Doing (1 Chronicles 29:17). I'm sure there are more, but those six means of delighting our Father are plenty to keep me purposefully occupied all day! NOT that I'm trying to earn my way into his good graces. Can't be done. Praise God that he accepts us and loves us, even though we sin. But because I love HIM, I do want to bring him delight. One day our efforts will be rewarded: "Try hard to live without sinning, and be at peace with everyone so that he will be pleased with you when he returns" (2 Peter 3:14, LB). A worthy goal!www.nancyaruegg.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13060173405144735663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443269509543825661.post-25443993530841719792016-01-11T06:44:19.327-08:002016-01-11T06:44:19.327-08:00Anna,

My word of 2016 is "grow". So in order for me to grow I have found that I have to take scripture word by word and almost dissect so that I can receive the true meaning. Doing this on purpose has really been a blessing. So often as you mentioned, we will just skim over but taking time to really soak in the words often times bring clarity. Discern yes! Be blessed and encouraged to continue in the work God has given you.
