Why Do I Study The Bible?

 

Why Do I Study The Bible

Does anything I do or study make 

me any closer to Jesus or God?

What has drawn me closer to study

God's word? Why do feel the need

to study? I don't know the answer 

to any of these questions, why? 

Because I can't explain the feeling,

but after I do study it makes me 

feeling better, makes me at ease.

So why is it when I look at my 

Bible I get frustrated and saddened?

I think because I get these feelings 

of I don't understand what I am 

reading, but yet I keep on 

reading it. Why? I just don't 

understand it. Maybe it's just a 

feeling of "What am I accomplishing 

today?" I don't know.

I guess it helps me to stay in touch 

with God, learning and developing 

a relationship with God and his son.

Oh but yet, I still don't understand 

what I am reading at times! It does 

make me feel closer to God and 

his precious Son. 

Life is hard, down right confusing 

but I can't give it up and walk away.

Life will still go on without me and 

it will one day. So I guess what I am 

trying to say is, I can't give up and 

and walk away from God's word. 

I think being in the state I am in 

with confusion, draws me back 

to the Bible. I will let it confuse 

me and keep on reading. 

God never gave up on me and 

walked away or lost his faith 

in me, so I will not lose my 

faith or direction in Him. 

As for the Bible, I will keep 

on reading it and do my 

best to understand it.
