Day 23 - A picture of your favorite book

 

I'm getting better at reading this daily.  I read through chronologically last year.  This year was supposed to be on themes but it's more like 7 different starting places in the Bible.  So each day of the week I read from a different book but each week I read the next chapter or book after the previous week (not sure if I explained that well but hopefully you understand).  I love reading anything.  One thing I really enjoy about this year's reading plan is I get a couple of Psalms a week which has been really uplifting to me.  Even the ones when David is upset and crying out to God really speak to me.  That said I love reading.  I read everything.  I love kids books, novels, anthologies, biographies, nonfiction (which I didn't used to like).  I'm not big into poetry.  I majored in English at Hanover and so to fit classes into the schedule I wanted I took one or two poetry classes and I loathed them.  I can appreciate some good poems but usually I find poets to be way to self interested.  Anyway, I am currently reading Anastasia Romanov's diaries, Crazy Love by Francis Chan, and 

some adoption/parenting books.  I even enjoy reading books about teaching methodologies.  Books are just great!

Deuteronomy 30:10 The Lord your God will delight in you if you obey his voice and keep the commands and decrees written in this Book of Instruction, and if you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and soul.
