Reading the Bible.... do you understand it?

Have you read the Bible? The whole thing?
Do you understand it? ALL of it?

I have read it... I don't understand it all, which is why I read it over and over. I by no means have it memorized at any spot. I like to read it.. certain spots more than others, but I like it.
My favorite is Genesis... I can't get past it. I could read it over and over. Sometimes I would rather go back and read it again instead of continue... and I DO!

I have my whole life to read this book... its the only book I choose to read over and over. Usually I can not read a book more than once. I remember the story, I start to read it and remember the rest of the story and stop reading it. Not this book.... its more like history to me. Its learning my history and the true beginning. Every time I read it I remember more, more becomes clear and I get more ideas and clarity.

Someday I will be able to quote the Good Book, someday I will have a time in my life where I can stop and refer back to a place and time in the book where guidance and advice is given and reflect on my current situation and let it help me.

For now, I will enjoy the education and enlightenment I am getting now from the reading and learning. Everyday, I use what I have learned, everyday I reflect and think , what would He want me to do about this? And as my pastor says, I'm still just a "baby christian"
