So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it (Isaiah 55:11). For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews 4:12). God once gave me the thought to describe the Bible as His letter, written to us when we were far away and did not really know who He was--written as a way to get us aquatinted with Him, and teach us more about who He is. Even after reading the Bible for many years and countless hours, it is still amazing to me how God continues to reveal Himself to me in ways I had never imagined. It is wonderful how God continues to use His letters to us to inspire, teach and draw us to Him no matter how many times we read a familiar verse or passage. it is still a wondrous thing to me. . . the insight God provides to me, it is a mystery encased in Holy expectation. revealing truth through written word of God, this is a simple task. but i in my humanity having but to ask am of another nature. complicating matters i still struggle. i somehow turn simplicity around and find that complication is simpler to me-- --or so it seems. Thank God that I am not alone. for there are none who know the mind of God. But there are those who still aspire to see His Word anew. God's Word is "living and powerful." It is a beautiful letter written to draw us closer to Him. As Christians, we sometimes find ourselves getting little or nothing out of our daily reading. The best thing we can do when this happens is to pray and ask God to make His Word fresh and new to us. Ask Him to show you what you can do to bring back the joy of reading His Word. He wants you to get all you can from reading His letter to you because, as we are well aware, there is still so much more of Him for us to know--and so much more of Himself that He wants to share. Pray. Ask for Him to renew His Word. And keep reading. You will soon begin to discover new wonders of God's person.
