Mom’s Toolbox is an excellent site to get inspired to dig into your Bible and be fed by the Word of God. Amy runs the site and she recently hosted a “Read the Bible in 90 days Challenge”.
I did try to keep with the Bible in 90 but I have to say that I fizzled out about Day 8 because my life went crazy for awhile. I really wanted to get back into the Word in my quiet times so I was excited to see her new challenge to “Blog through the Gospels”.
The first Day is Matthew 1, I am using her method to meditate and reflect on the passages.
Matthew 1
S: Scripture-This is what stood out to me: [17] So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations. (Matthew 1:17 ESV)
O: Observation-Everything God does is intentional, everything is a part of His plan and His plans are perfect.
A: Application-Trust in His Sovereignty, Trust in Him and His plans. My plans are not His plans and my thoughts are not His thoughts.
P: Prayer– That I look to Him and not the circumstances in my life. He is eternal, my life here is but a vapor.
Thanks to Amy and Samantha for sharing this journey!
