I recently started reading my Bible daily. I thought it would be easy to do, but after I started I realized that it takes a lot out of me to focus and really understand the message that's being conveyed without getting distracted. With that said, I feel happy when I've finished reading the scheduled chapters for each day. I'd like to say that I've read the entire Bible before, but I'd be lying. That's why I decided I would read the Bible in a year. I've got a plan for every single day, and I'm going to stick to it until I'm done. I've also gotten into the habit of praying after I've finished reading. It's comforting and makes me ready to face the next day. This realization makes me wonder why I've never prayed daily before. I should have. I think it was probably a combination of laziness and not knowing what to pray about or for because I didn't pay attention to things that I should have seen. Or maybe I've just become a more compassionate person towards others, and they make me want to pray for them to do well or be well. I really don't know. I'm happy I'm where I am though, and I hope I stay here for a while. Or grow some more; that would be good too.
