Presently reading through Numbers and often finding my mind wandering to matters of "work," "ministry," and "household duties." However, I was just reminded via email from a fellow-believer that the Word, due to its focus being on Jesus, is always lively and refreshing. I must savor the moments of reading the text, not necessarily for because it is always "adventurous" or because I am discovering "new" insight, but rather because all of the text all of the time is pointing me upward to Him, the One who satisfies my deepest longings and fulfills my greatest desires. Father, help me see Jesus in every text in a refreshing and lively manner.
