So in my previous soul notes post I mentioned I was starting to read my Bible, and it’s coming — a little — it’s aight.
I’ve been playing around with multiple angles, like reading with a purpose. Meaning whatever obstacle I’m going through at the time, that’s what I read about. However, it’s not enough for me to just read that particular scripture. I have to read the whole chapter because I like to know the context that surrounds the scripture.
And I read it.
And I’m reading multiple translations, but there still seems to be a disconnect that I’m missing because I’m reading, but everything doesn’t make sense. However, I don’t declare my attempts a complete bust because that one scripture did help a sister out. I just think it would serve me more if I’m able to pull more from my reading than just one thing.
A beginning is a beginning.
I’ll keep reading, keep trying, and keep steady.
If I treat this like a muscle, I know it’ll get stronger — just like everything else I’ve worked through.
