Wow really progressing here!!

The Psalms are interesting but I have been studying them for 3 months and am less than half way through.

I want to get onto something a bit more meaty.

 

[agamemnonoftroy]

Yes, if we read along with this in the psalm, doing so with each one, going through it, there is so much as we will find, we will progress far, with some growth with it.

FredVB the problem with Chapter a day is that we are going through the Bible from beginning to the end. There are 150 Psalms to read. At one a day that is 5 months of study.

I am looking forward to Isaiah. I think Isaiah will give us some more meaty subjects to get our teeth into.

 

[FredVB]

I said what was in my post for reader s to be encouraged to look more into these psalms.
