on giving thanks for finishing 2 Kings



 



woo hoo~ Finally completed reading the book of 2nd Kings!


*Jumps up and punch the air*


Last year was thinking of reading through the Bible in a year. So started from the Book of Genesis. but somehow ran out of steam by the time I hit the middle of the book of 2nd Kings in July.* At the start of this year, was encouraged and reminded to go back and start the bible-trekking again. Now am still not really counting the days - if I go by the schedule, I'm late behind time again***. But the idea is more than just meeting the time-line I've given for myself. The idea is to meet God as I read His words for me.


So, do give thanks with me~ :D

* I'm a slow reader**, and a conscientious one at that. Then somemore the Bible I'm trying to read through has all the interesting factoids and commentaries at the footnotes, so even slower.


** When it comes to the Bible, I'm ashamed to say...


*** Should be in the midst of Chronicles ah, if I really wanna pace myself "strenously"....

  2. I'm using the Life Application Study Bible (NIV). But it's a "dua leng gong" - not portable one.

    But shouldn't complain, because it's s gift from my 3 close freinds. It laid collecting dust in one corner of the room for about 3-4 years, before I seriously picked it up and started to read through it.
