When people ask me where to start reading the Bible, I tell
them there’s really no wrong place to start. You can study anything that’s
going to help you.
When I first started studying the Word, I didn't have very
good relationships because I didn't really understand what love was. So that’s
what I studied.
As I studied the subject of love, I learned that it’s more
than a gooey feeling. By studying what the Bible says about love, I learned how to love. Then my
life began to change.
Whatever you’re dealing with, you can find scripture about
it by using a concordance. For example, if you’re dealing with anger or fear,
flip to the concordance in the back of your Bible & locate those words to
see which scriptures talk about those issues.
If you can’t think of anything right away, thumb through the
concordance & pick a subject that grabs your attention. Begin looking at
all scriptures referenced with this word & read them. Ask Holy Spirit to
lead you & reveal truth to you.
No matter where you start, remember that the Word is alive
& has something for you today!
Thanks for sharing this, Ashley. This gives me a reminder that I need to get back to love and that I need to read my word more often! And I mean really study it! Hope all is well with you, girlie.
