Reading the Great book

So ya im busy watching the Olympic torch run right now for all who is watching as well. Just watching 30 mins until the beginning of the Olympics got me thinking I should blog, since i didnt do that for a while now.

Anyways, i just wanted to talk about the Bible right now. For many ACI students, u should no that almost everyday we have a 20 min period called DEAR(Drop everything and read), which i assume all of u just sleep or read some sort of nonsense. However, during that time period, i actually read the Bible, which was perfect cuz it's a very quiet time and u have 20 mins to actually read something. This shows y my Bible is pretty dirty in the pages cuz i read it during DEAR for about almost half a year. DEAR is sort of like my daily devotion period since im pretty much busy for the rest of the day.

Anyways, thats not the point. I just wanted to discuss the Bible today. At first, when i decided to read the Bible from scratch to finish (yes im pretty hardcore tryin to read the whole thing and tryin to understand it), i thought it will be pretty boring cuz many ppl say its boring. Actually when i began reading it, it wasnt actually bad and it was pretty interesting cuz in the beginning of the Bible, it was all narratives. At first i just read it for the sake of my boredom during DEAR. However as i started reading, it was pretty amazing. I realize just how amazing and great God is. Other that performing miracles, he punished ppl including the Israelites like a Father when they dont respect him. It changed my view of the Bible from a boring book to a great worthwhile book to read with many things to learn.

Just wanted to encourage u guys to read the Bible more often. It may not be as boring as u think :) and its very good to learn about God's word. Im reading Proverbs right now, try to catch up :)

More later
