Today, I rolled over into the month of October in my Discipleship Journal Bible Reading Plan. I’m finally through the book of Luke, Hebrews, Proverbs and Isaiah. I have to admit, I find Isaiah and Hebrews to be some of the more daunting books to read, and while I’m glad and grateful I’ve been able to do so, I’m also ready for something new.
So, today, I begin the Gospel of John, the book of James, Ecclesiastes and Jeremiah.
I’m quite familiar with John and James already, but Jeremiah I’m less acquainted with. Ecclesiastes however, is among my favorite books of the Old Testament. I was realizing today as I read through the first chapter, that the Preacher’s thoughts through Ecclesiastes are so many of my own before I came to know Christ. And even today, the philosophical logic of the book continues to be an undergirding to my faith.
I’m excited for this month’s reading. I’m sure I’ll be keeping you posted!
