Blog On

Blog On

January was a fun month for blogging. Going through the Book of Acts gave me something to write about every day. It was often a challenge to get it done. There were often several things calling for my attention. It was fun to read the chapters of Acts, to read commentaries from various sources and figure out what I would write for the day. At the end of the month I found another source of commentary and I almost wanted to start all over again. Almost.

Now, we are in a new month. I trust that you are continuing to read your Bible. Keep reading till you know everything there is to know about the Bible. I hope you are still thinking about what it says and using the questions we used. They are:
1. What can we learn from the church in Acts?
2. What should be normative for the church?
3. How can we apply what we see in Acts?

As you read from any book of the Bible, you can adapt these questions and use them to think about and apply the Bible to your life. Think about what you read.

The title of this writing today is Blog On. Or, we can say, keep on keeping on. Never give up. Just as we are not to give up reading the Bible because the emphasis for January is past, we are to not give up doing all we can in our service to the Lord. Press on.

Keep the calling of God in your heart. Keep the eternal reward in your focus. Keep moving forward. Keep your eyes on the Lord, not the circumstances around you. Keep on.
