50 Day Spiritual Adventure: Week 8

50 Day Spiritual Adventure: Week 8

Welcome to the eighth and final week of the Spiritual Adventure! My prayer is that you are enjoying your journey through the Minor Prophets. If you fall behind, please do not get discouraged! Keep at it; there will be some time to get caught up. Below you will find Scripture for the last seven weeks. I will plan to simply build on the Scripture, therefore, the past weeks Scriptures will be available as well.

Now that we have come to the end of this year's 50 Spiritual Adventure, my prayer is that God has whetted your appetite for His Word. Why re-read the Minor Prophets? Or how about tackling the New Testament? 

In any event, I want to encourage you to keep on reading God's Word. There is so much in it for our edification. No matter how many times we have read it, there is always more to learn!

What have you learned through these weeks of reading?

From My Heart to Yours,

Kim

To the regular readers of my blog, as well as those here for the first time, I would like to welcome you to join me in a time of delving into God’s Word, specifically the Minor Prophets of the Old Testament. Over the course of nine weeks (starting September 1 and ending October 19) we will be reading one or two chapters each day. It is not as daunting as it sounds. Be encouraged as you get into God’s Word, even when the prophets had a difficult word to share, there was such care and love too, if you look deeply enough.

The Scripture I will be sharing is what my pastor (Trinity United Methodist Church--Albia, Iowa) created and distributed to the congregation. This is something he does each fall. It is a time to be renewed spiritually. It is a time get back into the Word after a busy summer.

For some, it may be the first time they have really gotten into the Word. Wherever we are in our walk with the Lord, more awaits us. If you have yet to surrender you heart to Lord, why not do it now? Check out my blog archives for posts on salvation and what it means to follow Jesus are available for reading.

Speaking for myself, I have learned and grown from these special times. As you begin to read these passages, please do not get discouraged! If you get behind, keep on going, there will be time to get caught up.  

My plan is to post the Scripture for the week late Saturday or early on Sunday morning of that week; therefore, for a short time each week will have two posts instead of the usual one.

May God Bless you richly as you read His Word!

  1. Hi Kim! Thank goodness for 'catch up' days, right? I have been hosting my friend for two weeks now, and my sister just stayed overnight, on her way to work. Sometimes life makes you very busy!

    I think sometimes it's a cycle of reading the Scriptures, and then cycles of living it. That's why it's so important to me to have a foundation in the Word. It shows me how to live to the full.
    Have a wonderful Tuesday my friend, living and reading the Word of God!

    1. Hi Ceil! Yes, 'catch up' days are a blessing, that's for sure. You have been busy with having guests at home. Life can get busy!

      Applying Scriptures to life is important, without that it is simply reading--an activity to mark off a "to do list".

      You have a wonderful Tuesday, as well, my friend!

      Kim
