I love how one family celebrated the completion of the Bible in 90 Days last session. I’ll let Sarah share in her own words::<\/p>\n

Those are pictures of my daughters, Carly (15) and Emma (11) with their medals. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
We engraved their name, date,\u00a0and “Bible in 90 Days” on the back.\u00a0 They were such troopers through the whole thing!\u00a0 It was sweet to see my girls reading the Bible every spare moment, they did not want to get behind.\u00a0 Their times to read were when they first woke up, late afternoon before supper, and again in the evening right before bedtime.\u00a0 They’d also read in the car on the way to and from appointments.\u00a0 If they had plans for the weekend, they’d read ahead during the week so they wouldn’t have as much to read on the weekend.\u00a0 It was also good for them to see their dad and I reading every spare moment as well.\u00a0 The t.v. has sat dark and silent, I loved it!\u00a0 :)<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
For the last two years,\u00a0our family has tried to read through the Bible – we’ve followed the One Year Bible, but we have failed to complete it both times.\u00a0\u00a0I think because we tried to read it all together and different things would hinder that time – my husband’s work schedule, church activities, piano, sports, etc<\/span>.\u00a0 The key to completing it this time (and in 90\u00a0days!)\u00a0was each could read on their own, no one had to wait until all family members were present to read.\u00a0 I also like it that each person was reading every word and not just listening (which is easy\u00a0to day dream!). <\/span><\/div>\n
For their accomplishment, my husband had the idea of getting medals made for them.\u00a0 They’ve received\u00a0medals for 4H, National History Day, music and track – but this is a way bigger accomplishment!!!\u00a0 We had a little ceremony and invited Grandma and Grandpa and an aunt over (which was a witness to them as well) and presented the girls with the medals.\u00a0 They were very excited!\u00a0 He told them they’ll get a medal each time they read through the Bible.\u00a0 Now their little brother is excited too to do it. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Thanks so much for the weekly encouragement and daily prayers!\u00a0 Praises\u00a0to God for HIS help through the whole thing – we are so blessed\u00a0and closer to HIM because of it. <\/span><\/div>\n
