A new year is upon us. That means a lot of things to a lot of people, but for me I don't know if I really care. 2008 was interesting, full of various life changes, including a roller coaster of emotional turmoil. I guess you could say that I am glad it's over (the year that is), but I am not. That isn't to say I am wishing it were still 2008, just that I am indifferent. Maybe it is because the issues of 2008 have still to run their course. Anyway, I have no feelings toward it being a new year. I have been asked by a few people if I had made any resolutions. Nope. I don't see the point. By February most people have forgotten them anyway.
I am wanting to read the Bible. Not because it is the new year, but because I call myself a follower of God, the God that is laid out in the Bible. Therefore I feel the need to read it. Also because I am a Bible college student that is preparing for ministry and feel very ill equipped in my Bible reading skills. Thirdly, I am also confused on a lot of theological issues and feel the need to smooth those out before stepping into ministry. And lastly, I am wanting to say that I have read the Bible all the way through. Yes I am a man that deals with pride.
I am starting with Romans as Romans is one book that deals with heavy theological stuff which I like. I don't know how long I am going to stay in Romans. I don't have any Bible reading plan or devotional I am following, only being lead by the Spirit who will teach us and lead us into all truth. I am spend all year in Romans, I may spend a week here, though I wish I will to spend more. But like Paul himself in his attempts at visiting Rome, I may be lead else where.
So without further ado..........I give you my Romans study
