Overwhelmed

If your like me then you want everything to come easy and come fast. I want to be able to know the Bible and know it fast and have it all studied up and have it in my head. I get overwhelmed with how much there is and how much I really don’t know about the Bible.

What I’ve come to realize over the past couple of weeks is that it takes time to know the Bible. Its takes patience, practice and perseverance. Patience to realize there is a lot there and we can never understand all of it. Practice to know how to approach the Bible and how to learn it the correct way so that it will stick with us. And perseverance to keep with it even when it gets overwhelming. I think that if we put forth effort to learn the Bible and know who Jesus was and is then eventually we will start to see results. James 1:4 “Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”

I think in the end we will come to realize how much studying the Bible pays off. I don’t know if anyone else feels this way but I have experienced that these past couple of weeks. So stick with it so that in the end we will be “mature and complete, not lacking anything”
