"He Who Comes To Me Will Not Hunger"
by Frank Malizzo
Gold. Honey. Fire. A carne adovada breakfast burrito.
Scripture has been likened to all of these.
(Okay, I actually took a little bit of artistic license with the last one, but you get the point.)
God uses His Word to transform our hearts (Jn. 17:17, Rom 12:2). By His Word, He infuses us with hope, corrects our thinking, destroys our pride, and molds our affections. He continually opens our eyes to the unfolding majesties of the gospel.
Spending time with the Lord each day changes everything.
Would you like some help with your Scripture reading this coming year? There are so many ways to approach it! You can read chronologically (reading the events in the order that they occurred). You can read a little from several different portions each day; or can take one book at a time. You can have a plan for reading 5 days a week; or a plan for every morning and evening. You can read through the whole Bible once, and cover the Psalms twice; or you can just read through the New Testament this year.
Whatever your interest, there is a plan for you. Here is a link to more than a dozen great options, to get you started this year, and keep you on track for faithfulness:

May the Lord meet with you and change you, as you seek His face this upcoming year.
