Huh. So evidently with this "Bible in a Year" plan, you're supposed to have been reading a little bit every day. I appear to be 25 days behind! I'll try to do a few days of reading at a time until I'm caught up. I will title each post with the date of the assigned reading so we can all comment on the same readings.
This morning I read "Day 1" which had a variety of scripture from Genesis, Matthew, Psalms. (There may have been more, I didn't take notes.)
I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing with this blog - so here are my thoughts:
1) I really like "The Message" version of the Bible. I like the way it's written, it flows nicely and it's easy to read.
2) One thing that surprised me was that the wise men that visited baby Jesus were spies sent from Harod, and that they fell in love with Jesus and decided not to report back to Herod. No idea on that thing.
3) I really, really, really liked Psalm 1:1-6. I was pretty amused by the Message translation wording. I felt like this one spoke to me (although I'm pretty sure I may fall into the "attended Smart-Mouth college" bucket - I try not to be proud or snotty, though).
