Congratulations! If you have been reading the Bible with us from January 1, then today marks a big time milestone. Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible, while Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter in the Bible. Psalm 118 is important, sandwiched in between both the longest and shortest chapters in the Bible because 118 marks the exact middle of the Bible. So, when the reading today finished after Psalm 118, it means that less than half of the Bible is left. The reading is on the downhill. Congratulations for reading half of the Bible so far this year. Here are a few verses for us to remind us why we should be reading the Bible and remind us why we are reading the Bible this year.
-Your statutes (commands or words) are my delight; they are my counselors.
-Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path.
-I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you
-For the word of God is living and active, sharper than a double edged sword
-All Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.
