Why is it so hard to commit to reading the bible daily? I know that I love God with all of my heart and I trust him, but I jst can't seem to feel PUMPED about reading his word. Same with praying, I have a hard time remembering to do that as well. With the Bible it's not jst remembering though, it's also wanting to. If I think to pray I do it, but it's not the same with the bible. Maybe it's because its hard for me to get something out of what I read. It doesn't grab my attention or anything. I want it to though, I would love to be able to read the bible and be excited about what I read, and learn something from it. Does anybody else struggle with this as well? Can somebody give me some kind of advise in this area? I would greatly appreciate it!
A person needs to read the Bible. It isn't that long of a book. Start at the beginning and read a little each day until you are finished. You need this wisdom.
