Day 1

Day 1/40 , hopefully those who gave up difficult things haven't already given up!

His word:
1 Corinthians 11; Genesis 31; Psalms 31:1-13

Her word:

One thing I learned for sure is that I need to read the bible more often haha. I mean it is a little difficult to understand but sometimes I just feel like I'm reading another language and can't follow what exactly it is saying.
Luckily my handy dandy bible my mom got me one year for Christmas has little side notes on each chapter about a lesson or something you should consider while reading. One I noticed while reading was for the Genesis word of the day. It singled out Genesis 31:38-42 to be exact and says it is about honor. It tells us to think about if we are ever guilty of just "getting by", you know we all do it. But we should always give a little above and beyond like Jacob did. Who cares if anyone notices, all that matters is that God sees what efforts you make.  I know I do a lot to just get by in school, what college student doesn't. One personal example for me is I want to start praying every night, and I have been doing good so far. But why just once? I could go above and beyond and pray to him multiple times throughout the day.

I am sad to admit this, but I never knew where in the bible they talked about the Lord's supper. Of course I hear about it a lot in church like when we do communion and stuff. In fact our church has a communion song that the sing very rarely but as I was reading through 1 Corinthians 11 I caught the words to the song in versus 23-26. I am happy to say that I know can tell people where in the bible it comes from.
