Good morning and hello there, fellow readers (and reader-curious)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today is the first day of Journaling through the Bible in 90 days with MomsToolbox and I am so excited for all who are reading with us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(There will be a lot of posts regarding this for the next 90 days here, but there will also be other posts on life mixed in as I return to blogging… I missed it!!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got a very good question from a reader yesterday and thought I should share it in the the event you have the same question:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: What version of the Bible in 90 days will we be using? I saw a few different plans in the Bible App. <\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n
A: <\/strong>You are welcome to use any version you like. I will be reading an NIV thinline, as it has fewer footnotes, is a reliable translation and is easy to read. <\/h5>\n\n\n\n
I will post the reading plan for the upcoming week each Sunday on Momstoolbox. The plan mostly follows the Bible in 90 Days ministry plan, but with a few modifications. I suggest you select a Bible that works for you and refer to the blog each Sunday for the reading plan. <\/h5>\n\n\n\n
So glad you\u2019re reading with us!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

If any of you have other questions, please drop me a note and I’ll do what I can to help.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today’s Reading: Genesis 1- 16<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A LOT happened in these 16 chapters. We read about the creation of earth and its inhabitants, the flood, a promise to Abram and how he and Sarai responded to it, among so many other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s what I heard using the SOAP<\/a> method of journaling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch out for distractions and deception<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Scripture: Genesis 3:13<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Observation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The serpent was super crafty in deceiving her and inspiring her to act against the instruction of God. The serpent definitely got her off track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Application:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Satan is crafty and clever. Eve didn’t get a big obvious sign that she was being led astray. She was led with something that appeared to be good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where am I being distracted and deceived and inspired to act in ways that take away from God’s instruction for my life? I need to be aware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prayer:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Father God,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Help me to see where I am being deceived and led down paths to make decisions I should not be making. Help me to discern the Holy Spirit’s leading versus crafty distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to honor YOU in my thoughts and actions and not waste time, effort and energy on distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are all-knowing. I trust you. Please guide me in following you and identifying and turning away from deception and distraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love you, Lord. In Jesus, name, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amen<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What did you hear today?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’d love to learn what you heard or learned in the reading today. If you are comfortable sharing, please leave a note in the comments letting us know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SOOOOO pumped for all who are reading with us!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
