\"Bible<\/a><\/p>\n

How’s your reading coming?<\/h2>\n

Are you getting frustrated about the reading, slipping further and further behind, wondering if you should just give it up and not finish… or just read at your own pace?<\/p>\n

Is life getting in the way? Are you having a tough time making time to read enough of God’s word each day to stay on track?<\/p>\n

Or are you flying along, keeping up nearly every day or even cruising way ahead?<\/p>\n

Either way, let us know all about it!<\/p>\n

We are just past the half-way point<\/a> and, if you are behind and feeling hopeless, now is the time to really buckle down and make it happen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sure, you could convince yourself that it is okay to just stop, that you aren’t getting enough out of the reading because you are trying to go so fast and that pleasing God by reading the Bible this fast is just pointless anyway. And you are right… reading this fast isn’t something to do to check a box and please God. It is something you do to grow closer to Him, to learn more about our Father, his Son and the Holy Spirit.<\/strong> It’s an amazing way to spend time with Him that WILL change you.<\/p>\n

He gave you his Word. He invited you to read it. And I would bet He invited you to read it with us right now in just 90 days, finishing with us by October 8. Why else would you have been drawn to the program and began reading with us?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So what happens now? Are you going to keep to it, or jump back in and finish? I have seen readers jump into gear at this point and come back from day 10 to finish on time. And you CAN do that, too, if you want to. He has given you the time. It’s up to you to decide what to do with it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What’s it gonna be?<\/p>\n

There ARE forces against you. Who are you going to let win?<\/p>\n

Let us know.<\/p>\n
