      This took me a little over two weeks to fully study out, make notes and then type out. And I found several other little studies along the way. You can't go for a walk in the woods and not bring home a souvenir or two, which you have tucked away in your pockets. That is how it is when I read my Bible, lots of interesting things in it that get stored in the back of my mind, to simmer and stir on the back burner of my heart; to bring out when fully ready to be ladled out and shared among the hungry.
      I love to study my Bible. I can't just read it all the way through now without stopping to note at least one or ten things in my notebook. When you begin to read and study your Bible in this way, you, too, will want to know more, you will be just as hungry, maybe hungrier for what God is saying to you. This is my meat and bread. I hunger less for people food and more for God's food. It is more satisfying, more filling, and gives me the strength I need to do the task of the day which He sets before me.
      Be blessed; I am. As always, feel free to use anything on this site that God has laid on your heart.
