So up until this past weekend I was very committed to my One Year Bible readings. I didn’t miss a day and it was so enriching to be filled with the word daily (something i struggled to do in the past).  Well, my weekend was really busy and AWESOME. We lead worship for all the services and had really great prayer times before each service. The Holy Spirit showed up, no doubt. But I neglected to read my One Year Bible both Saturday and Sunday. What a big BIG mistake! I totally felt the power drain out of me on Monday and into Tuesday. But, when I got back into the readings and finally caught up, I was reading in Leviticus where God is instructing Moses on the appropriate way to conduct the many different types of offering to the Lord. I couldn’t have been at a more boring part of Leviticus when all of the sudden the Holy Spirit hit me like a ton of bricks and it pushed all the tears out of my face. The word is life! And to not read it daily, even what seems to be boring, is death to the inner-man. Thank You God for your wonderful, life-giving word.
