Reading for Today:  Luke 1-2

As you read through the daily readings, jot down some notes about what stands out to you.  Be sure to come back tomorrow, and post some comments about the reading.

I know it may be hard for some to keep up with all of the readings.  Most will be broken up into 1 or 2 chapters per day.  Make reading a family affair, sitting down and reading with the whole family.  Remember, if you keep up with all of the readings, you will read the whole New Testament in the next six months!

Tune in tomorrow for some of my thoughts on today’s reading, as well as the reading for tomorrow!

Welcome to The Higher Rock Blog.  The name comes (as you can see in the tag line above) from Psalm 61:1-2, which reads:

Hear my cry, O God; Attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth I will cry to You, When my heart is overwhelmed; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

The point is, and hopefully the point of this blog will be, that we need to turn to God for the answers.  When we struggle with life, when temptations come, when trials arise, we must turn to God.  My hope is that this blog will be a place where we can study from God’s word, the Bible, and figure out what message He has for us today.

One of the ways that I hope to accomplish that end is to post daily readings from the New Testament.  I will be following the reading plan laid out by Edwin Crozier in his book, Give Attention to Reading.  Each day (5 days per week), I will be posting the new reading.  I will also try to post some commentary based on the previous day’s reading.  I would also like to hear from you.  What did you find particularly interesting, or compelling from the day’s reading?

Be sure to subscribe to the RSS feed so that you can keep up with the readings each day.  If you subscribe in a reader, we can also keep  up with how many folks are “on board” with us.

We will be starting with the first reading today, so check out the next post for the schedule!
