reading the bible...

I am sitting on my couch trying to get some time in with god. It is so hard for me often to actually sit down and read the bible or pray. Yes I am a missionary and all that good stuff but that doesn’t mean you are super holy or spend hours a day sitting in a dark corner reading the bible and sweating blood praying… but a little while ago I was at a point where I needed an answer. You probably know exactly this kind of situation: god, please answer me to the question I have and please give me the answer I WANT. I knew in the back of my head that this is a very dangerous situation I am getting myself into by asking god that. So I sat down and promised god to read the bible and pray everyday for an hour. And I did. The thing was that god used the situation where I spend time with him to tell me a lot of other things than to answer my question. But the question also was not anymore that important to me since he showed me a lot of other answers around that. I really kept reading and praying since then, (still waiting for that answer) but god is showing me sooo much more. Have you been ever exited to tell others about what you read in the bible? I think that is what god wants us to be. Having him speak through little things in our life.  I am new touched and exited to read and talk to god again every day new. I want you to share what you read in your bible and what touches you in your heart with your friends. Stuff what bothers you and what amazes you and makes you happy. I do that a lot  and through sharing, others tell me what god tells them and that often really speaks into my life. I would love to hear what god tells you.
