Click Here The Bible: Read It Day 297 No matter how difficult it is for you to concentrate, no matter how busy your schedule, no matter what emotion you are feeling—discipline yourself to read the Bible daily. Kay Arthur says, "Many times it's very hard for people who are grieving to read the Word because the pain is so great, because they cannot concentrate, because their thoughts keep running back to their pain or to the situation or to the wound, and it's hard to focus." God's Word brings healing, growth, and life. By reading His Word daily, you will be prepared to face anything the day may bring. You will be victorious in all areas—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual—through Christ. "He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions" (Psalm 107:20 nasb). I need You, Lord Jesus. I need Your Word. Deliver me from myself. Amen. Through a Season of Grief The daily email messages you are receiving are also available in a book format.
