Bible in 90 Days ~ B90 Day 81 Check in

It’s the final stretch and in all honesty, I’m rather shocked! While I know that I was determined to finish this from the beginning, I am still amazed that I am one week away from completely reading through the Bible.

Consistently.

This week I didn’t read everything in order, but chose to read entire books at a time. I was in the mood to read 1 Corinthians, so I read the entire book one day. The next day I read all of Romans. Here I am at the start of 2 Corinthians and barring any major diversion this week, next Monday will be my last post in the Bible in 90 Days Challenge!

Here are a few things that I marked and jotted down this week:

~ The book of John seems a little more ‘in-depth’ than the other gospels. There are a few more stories, etc… I am amused that John refers to himself by always saying ‘the disciple whom Jesus loved.’ Just made me smile.

~ Even his own brothers didn’t believe him {John 7:5} ~ just find that incredibly sad and wonder what Mary must have been thinking

~ The blind man in John 9 became quite the witness for Jesus! :)

~ Jesus had a lot of ‘slipping away’ moments where he disappears when the leaders are ready to arrest him.

~ What would it have been like when Jesus washed Judas’ feet during the last supper? It says he washed all their feet and Judas hadn’t left yet. What was going through each of their minds during that time? 

~ Did the 40 men who took an oath not to eat until Paul was killed die of starvation…or did they break their oaths? {Acts 23:14} Just wondering…

~ Have I mentioned that I love Romans? I do. No longer a slave to sin, but free. So much in this one book.

~ 1 Corinthians 14 just brought some new light to me on a few things personally {which I love}. :) Way too much to sum up and explain in here, but it’s all good!

Those are a few of the things that I was contemplating about this week and I am looking forward to finishing up my reading this week!!!
