Over the past few weeks I’ve been stuck around John 12 in my morning devotions. In fact I think it has become my all time favourite chapter in the New Testament.
Have you ever read to a part in a book, whether it be the Bible or not, where you just have to stop, let the depth of the words you’ve just read soak in and attempt, albeit multiple times, to keep on reading?
This was me with John 12 in The Message. I literally couldn’t turn the page. I read, reread, and read again sentences with such punch, particularly John 12, verses 20 through to 26.
Now it is Christmas, I’ve put John away and hit up Luke. I’ll come back to him though and discover more amazing insights into who Jesus is and what He has done for us.
“How marvellous, how boundless
Is Your love, is Your love
How wonderful, sacrificial
Is Your love for me”

Great song, love those words!
It’s amazing! It’s been flying around my head since Friday night’s LIVE@TheChapel
I love how as you read you make notes – I’m going to give that a try, write down my thoughts as I read the Bible and journey with God. Thanks for the idea xx
Do it!!! Trust me, when you go back and read your notes, it’s pretty amazing to see how God has lead your thoughts. Xo
