Proverbs 15:1 and my daily Bible reading plan with my 5 little days bubbled in.. :)
...one of my favorite verses ever:
a gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger. (NIV)
(I remember discovering it as a first-year teacher and employing it with my angry little ones! ...amazingly true and practical principle for life!)
...So, I chose this as my photo today on purpose..........
Since January, Jeremy's been working a read-the-Bible-in-a-year plan. I've admired and appreciated his persistence and diligence to say the least!
Well, I've finally decided to join him, and I'm so glad I did!
He's been saying all along what a great difference it makes -versus reading other fantastically inspirational material- and I'm glad to agree.. it's no exaggeration. (The difference in his thinking and speaking and processing life was also convincing..)
I still want to work on my summer reading picks.. plus a few that continue to catch my eye as I stroll through bookland on a daily basis, but this is too good to miss. I'd rather miss out on reading any of them than neglect it.
