Getting the Most Out of Your

Daily Bible Reading
As you read the Bible each day, allow the Scriptures to speak to you. This daily dialogue between you and the biblical text will reveal new
understandings about God, and about yourself.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God has for you.
God, connect with me here, as I seek you in your Word.

Read the selected section of Scripture slowly. Take note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. Think through what God is communicating to you at this point in your life.

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about whats on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out what youve uncovered.

And so we shall all come together to that oneness in our faith and in our knowledge of the Son of God; we shall become mature people, reaching
to the very height of Christs full stature.
Ephesians 4.13
(Good News Translation)
