The Reading Room

Okay, so I have to be upfront and tell you that I haven't actually finished this book yet. But, I want to tell you about it anyway! If you have never done a Beth Moore group Bible study, or even one on your own, do it. I mean like right now, go find one and do it! She's amazing. I've done two of her Bible studies, both with wonderful groups of women from my church, Good Shepherd, and I loved them.

So, when I saw Beth's book Praying God's Word Day by Day, I just had to have it. (Of course, I downloaded it to my Nook!) I love this book because it's about being active: short prayers to God using His own words from the Bible. It's such a fulfilling read every night, and it pairs perfectly with another daily Bible study or reading simply because it's short and incorporates many verses (some of which you may have already studied that same day!).

I started this book on January 1 as the guide suggests, so I'm almost finished with the first month. Of course, it spans the whole year, but you can pick up at any time! There's no sequence to the prayers, they're each unique. If you're looking for a simple way to get active in daily prayer and Bible reading, this devotional is a good jumping off point. Happy reading!
