The importance of God's word

Reading God’s word and praying first thing in the morning has changed me a lot. It makes a difference in how I go about my day especially since my days are pretty uneventful. God’s word somehow allows me to be fine with the quiet and uneventful days I am living right now, usually I would get annoyed when my days were like that. I should be thankful for these days because they allow me to rest and prepare for days that may be overwhelming and overloaded with things to do. The busier days are going to come soon which is great because not doing much makes me lazy. Studying the Bible several times a week also strengthens me. Going to group Bible study and the Genesis Bible Academy is very refreshing. At the beginning of the summer I wasn’t even sure if I wanted to go to the GBA but once I went I wanted to go every time. However, it also coincides with my group Bible study which I am bummed about. I decided, though, that it is also important if I attend that meeting because it prepares me for Sunday Worship Service. Either way, I receive God’s word, so it doesn’t matter where I go.
