Emiri<\/strong>
\nThis week I learned from Psalm 71:3 \u201dBe my rock of refuge, to which I can always go; give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.\u201d That God\u2019s word brings us certainty and confirmation when we are uncertain so it is crucial to take it seriously. I think I was lacking the seriousness in doing the Bible reading. I feel like I was not taking it seriously as I should have like when I am reading it everyday I\u2019m skimming through the reading and it\u2019s not coming into me. So I want to change that and do it more seriously.<\/p>\n

Jun re: Emiri<\/strong><\/span>
\nYou wrote basically the exact same thing not too long ago, which probably means that you weren\u2019t able to do it after writing about it last time. So you need to think in practical terms what exactly you mean by doing Bible reading \u201cmore seriously\u201d (\u201cserious\u201d is such a subjective word). Otherwise, the same thing will happen. How do you plan to do it \u201cseriously\u201d (besides not skimming through the reading)?<\/p>\n

Like I wrote a couple weeks ago, always write something new. For example, although you wrote the same thing before, if you write in specific, practical terms how you will take Bible reading more seriously this time, that would be something new you will have learned and can implement.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Timothy<\/strong>
\nIn Psalms 73, Asaph confesses that he has “nearly lost my foothold” because he “envied the … prosperity of the wicked” (v. 2-3). The wicked are “always free of care” and say that God does not know of their deeds (v. 12). They ignore God and live selfishly according to the world. I have not been reading the Bible every day and I do usually not think about God or the Bible in my daily life. So, I will set a time for myself every day in the morning to pray and read the Bible. Then, I will have the entire day to think about and apply the passage to my life.<\/p>\n

Jun re: Timothy<\/span><\/strong>
\nIt\u2019s good that this psalm left an impression on you. It did on me as well. Did you notice where the turning point (from nearly forsaking his faith in God after seeing how the wicked flourish) came for the psalmist?<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I tried to understand all this, it troubled me deeply till I entered the sanctuary of God; then I understood their final destiny.\u201d (v. 17)<\/p>\n

The psalmist had faith in a good, just God in the beginning (v. 1): \u201cSurely God is good\u2026to those who are pure in heart.\u201d But he lost his way when within his narrow purview, it seemed like God wasn\u2019t really paying attention to people\u2019s actions and thoughts. How familiar is this feeling? \u201cSurely in vain I have kept my heart pure.\u201d (v. 13) But when he enters God’s sanctuary (and hears\/reads God\u2019s words), he realizes how foolish he was.<\/p>\n

Reading the Bible even a couple of minutes each day is the same as \u201centering God\u2019s sanctuary.\u201d If you do what you wrote (setting time aside to do it in the morning), I think you will be surprised at the difference it makes. For me, Bible reading is like receiving a text from someone you care about. Don\u2019t you get happy if you pick up your phone in the morning and see someone you love has texted you while you were asleep? The whole Bible is one gigantic text from God, who cares about you so much.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tomas<\/strong>
\nThis week\u2019s Bible reading in Pslams 73, I learned that we shouldn\u2019t be jealous or follow those that are wrong even if they are prosperous and do not suffer. Applying this to my life, I felt kind of iffy joining track since some of my friends told me not to join it because they said it would be, \u201cboring.\u201d But, I still joined and once our practice began, I realized it was hard, but I found it really fun and I even got faster than last time. So I was grateful I joined.<\/p>\n

Jun re: Tomas<\/strong><\/span>
\nGood, Tomas. You learned not to listen to your friends\u2019 words but to the voice in your heart. Be wary of people who are quick to say something is \u201cboring.\u201d This usually means that person him\/herself is the boring one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
