I am slightly embarrassed to say that this was the first time in my life I have read the Bible through, and then again, I'm not. Being raised in church I felt like I was living the christian life. I knew the stories and I knew the verses to backup what ever I was trying to prove. I thought I understood it. I thought I knew what Jesus was thinking and why he lived the way he did. God was inside my box and my understanding.
I can't really describe the plethora of feelings that I feel when I think of Almighty, Powerful, Holy God interacting with us, with me. It's absolutely beautiful. The love that is displayed to us through Jesus is so overwhelming and amazing, I want to cry when I think about it. I feel a deep responsibility to love others the way God loves me, and to live a life that is more in tune with Him. His word and example is amazing, powerful, lovely and simply delightful, and I can't wait to read it again.
