“The Billy Graham Diet”Have you ever wondered what Billy Graham read in his quiet times? I think about that kind of weird stuff sometimes. The other day I read that Billy read a Proverb and five Psalms everyday. He said that by reading the Psalms it helped him “learn to get along with God” and the Proverbs helped him “learn how to get along with his fellow man”. This reading plan is very similar to Billy’s. We are going to spend the next thirty-five days (or as many days as it takes you to finish) reading some powerful Psalms and the book of Proverbs. The next level assignment of this reading plan is that I want you to find a verse each week that stands out to you and memorize it. You choose it and there is a place for you to write the verse at the end of each 7 days. My hope and prayer is that by the time you finish this reading plan you will have a better understanding of who God is, a better grasp as to how to deal with people, and have at least five verses hidden in your heart! The last instruction for this reading plan is to make sure that you ask God to help you understand what you are reading and to give you something to apply from His Word each day. If you have any questions check out some bible commentary such as Dr. Bob Utley’s at www.freebiblecommentary.org or feel free to facebook me or email me at: [email protected]
I’m praying God changes our lives through the reading and applying His Word,
Pastor Brian
