Welcome to the Purposeful Pause Bible reading challenge week 2 summary! I’m glad you arrived here so we can glance back over last week’s reading in the monthly Bible reading plan & journal challenge. Have you discovered purpose in God’s pauses throughout your life? I surely have! I’ve been taking extra time to reflect on the periods of waiting over the course of my life, as well as the daily moments he provides. My perspective on God’s timing is growing and changing and this is a good thing!! I pray your experience through this Bible reading challenge is both motivating and reassuring. Let’s take a look over last week’s reading. Ready?

Proverbs 8:23-36

Wisdom is something we often have to wait for, isn’t it? With experience comes wisdom. We can educate ourselves with all kinds of knowledge, whether physical, mental, or spiritual, but education will only supply the academics. Wisdom can only come from God and sometimes it’s a process to obtain it, isn’t it? Sometimes, we have to wait for it. Still pondering on this passage relating wisdom and waiting. I’d love to read your comments!

Titus 2:11-15

Ultimately our waiting on earth is all in the name of waiting for our blessed hope in Christ. What an incredible day it will be to experience heaven with Jesus! Hold on to your hope in Christ today, no matter your wait for earthly circumstance changes!! #purposefulpause #biblereadingplan#waitingonGod #biblereading

Jude 1:20-25

 

Today’s #purposefulpause#biblereadingplan passage gives us 3 things we can do while waiting on the Lord. 1. Build up your faith. 2. Pray in the Holy Spirit. 3. Keep yourself (focused and planted) in the love of God. So simple and yet so much depth to his instruction. Happy Monday meditating on the Scripture! #waitingonGod #biblereading

Isaiah 26:4-9

This morning’s #purposefulpause#biblereadingplan verses caused me to pause all right. I was immediately convicted and thought, “Is God’s name and His glory really the desire of my soul?” Because when I’m waiting on God, it seems like in my impatience, the truth is I want my way more than his. Jesus, forgive me and mold my heart to your desire. I yield myself anew this moment. Amen. #waitingonGod#biblereading

An important Scriptural truth to remember in the wait. Hope you are having a terrific Tuesday!!. #purposefulpause#waitingonGod #biblereadingplan#biblereading

Isaiah 33:1-6

Yes, Jesus, be my arm this morning. Thank you, Lord. #purposefulpause#biblereadingplan #waitingonGod#biblereading

Lamentations 3:25-33

Jesus, I wait quietly for you this morning. It is through the wait that I find strength to continue on. It is in the wait that draw closer to you, hearing your voice and understanding it is you speaking to my heart. Let me embrace the wait and your perfect timing. May my heart continue this prayer today. #purposefulpause#biblereadingplan #waitingonGod#biblereading

Hosea 12:1-6

 

“Wait continually for your God.” I believe the prophet extends an invitation to even us on this Friday in 2017. Hang on and just wait and see what your God longs to do! Happy Friday! #purposefulpause#biblereadingplan #waitingonGod#biblereading

By his grace,

Rachel
