Fifteen

I love my Bible.

My Bible study group gave me a gift of money a few years back and I used it to purchase this particular Bible NIV version. I have marked and written and highlighted with prayers and comments and Beth Moore quotes.

This morning I was feeling particularly heavy with a concern I had been praying about. Truth be told, I was a bit angry with God and despairing at the same time.
After venting in my journal, I heard the gentle nudge to open His Word. I opened to my favorite Psalms, then turned  to Isaiah and read all the passages I had underlined over time, pausing to pray along the way.

When I was finished a peace had settled over me.

Gratefulness.
