You can have read the bible daily for many years, and yet, after another reading, some things will stand out to you that you have NEVER seen before!!!

This happens to me often. And when it does, it pierces my heart greatly--at those times I especially feel His love and concern for my welfare and His presence. God uses the same Words for different reasons, sometimes as encouragement through a present trouble, yet another time the same passage He uses as a promise for future blessings, one I overlooked when I needed only encouragement, still another time I feel God's forgiveness when I've done a wrong, to Him or within my life--God speaks to me through His Word, in whatever circumstance, using the same Words but yet again, not. The Word of God lives and breathes; I change, yet He does not. No other text I read affects me the way God's Word does. Our God is an awesome God.
