For quite some time my favourite book of the Bible has been the epistle of Colossians, because it showed me the supremacy of Christ. It is a thouroughly Christological book and is essential reading and understanding for anyone who like myself left the Pentecostal church and in my opinion a need to grasp onto things and hold onto more than Christ. The desperate need for the tangible, needing signs, miracles, people falling over and the like.
However, I have not got to Colossians yet, but I have got to another of my favourite parts of the Bible, the Psalms. It is a brutally honest depiction of the way a persons worships God, through doubt, anger, grief, fear and through passion.
So what exactly did I read in the past ten days?
Job 22-42.
Galatians.
Ephesians.
Psalms 1 - 110.
A total of 143 chapters which is a total of 741 out of 1189 chapters if my artithmetic is correct, and there is no guarentee of that, the end result is that I am getting there, and hopefully in the next ten days I will get to Colossians again!
