HI Everyone
How’s it going? I must admit that I’m finding Leviticus less exciting than Genesis and Exodus.
Is anyone up to date? Be honest!!
March readings now ready for down load – keep going and keep praying for everyone else to keep going too…
God Bless
Jenny

There seem to be a lot of ritualistic rules surrounding forgiveness and worship that appear to be irrelevant to 2010. I offer my thoughts and wonder if others can add to them.
The challenge to me is “do I come into God’s presence (daily individually or corporately in church or Home Group) with the wonder and awe He deserves or am I over familiar and too casual? Do I really take into account my sinfulness and imperfection before God?”
It’s a joy to share reading the Bible in a Year daily with so many other friends connected to Christ Church. So far I’ve managed to just about keep up – thank you for the challenge Jenny. May we all be blessed by the richness and surprises of what we read, even if some of it appears to be unrelated to the culture and context in which we live.
Have others of you been amazed at the conncetions to be found between all the readings set for each day?

Dear Friends,
How’s it going?? I’m loving the way the readings can give a linked message. Today, the Proverbs warnings against the pitfalls of adultery are a direct example of the promise in Exodus 15 v 26 that obedience to God brings health and wellbeing. And then Jesus says in Matthew that ‘many are called but few are chosen. This links to the Exodus story of the chosen people – and reminds us that God provides for His chosen ones. I’m sure that everyone reading this is a ‘chosen one’. God gave each of us the desire to read and be changed by His word this year.
Praying for you all,
Jenny
