I thought I changed it. 30 to 45 days. Oh well. I have it now so that it's about 20 chapters a day.

Even when things look bad, God promises to give us what we need and not forsake us. He knows our needs before we ask. We can count on Him.

But Im interested in old books for the reasons you mentioned. It's all good

Thanks for your consideration. Blessings!

Isn't there sexual love in Song of Solomon?

It doesn't?

I still feel disillusioned and sad about that fact. A me-issue for sure but the one drawback of staying in Scripture is how idealistic it can make you. My ideal is that at least a handful on here would be able to bless those who curse them and do good to their enemies. Ive only seen one member...

I don't always like the word "nice". I don't expect it, nor is it ideal. Kindness with sincerity can cut like a knife. Nice is what we do to be liked by others, sometimes.

I'm sincerely glad you hold back. My thinking is that self-moderation by as many parties as possible is what makes good discussion possible because we can only control ourselves, not others. The more individuals hold themselves to Christ's standard first, examining the flaws of others...

This is why you're great in my book. Wisdom. Devotion will get you a lonely path. The same people look confused that you want to talk about God or the Bible when the service is over.

I've allowed the enemy to use my words a few times on here and regretted it. I want to look up to you and others here. You have more experience. I agree with a lot of what you say. I thought a lot about things youve said. I just can't get away from thinking patience and meek conduct is a...

I need a bit of pressure to stay motivated. I was the type of student that did projects the last day it was due. Im not always like that now but it sure helps.

Thanks. I see a big difference in correcting to help verses correcting to self-promote. Zeal to correct is profitable if done for the sake of others. What I don't like is this subculture of spiritualizing off-topic fault finding and insults as if it's righteous when that person is clearly not...

@PS95 Hopefully I was not projecting frustration at the nature of certain threads onto you. I am not supposing that we should never expose or criticize on here. I just don't see why it has to be done repeatedly, that's all. I think that's where we fall onto bad motives and expose...well...our...

Thanks! I think its so cute!

Good to see you!

I want my meditation to be separate from reading, if that makes sense. Read for context and learning, meditate for living a verse out. I have no idea if I will stick to the schedule but knowing I can keep adjusting it gives me comfort. I think a year makes me personally more likely to fail.

When I post Scriptures on patience and love, my beloved brethren will almost always bring up the exceptions. What about Jesus' harshness toward the Pharisees? What about correcting false teachers? What about wolves in sheeps clothing? Let's look at Jesus. Did the Lord attend the Pharisee...

:) Sir. Can you expound on that for us just a little?

Bible Reading Plan Generator Very cool!
