So usually I just read through the stories, you know about Esther, Adam and Eve, Ruth, Daniel, Jonah, Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Moses, sure I know the stories pretty well, I get the important points and morals of the stories, but what about the lengthy stories and verses in between? I read those and forget what I have read the next day.
Then I get really annoyed with myself because I don't glean anything from what I have read. Last week at church we had Discipleship Week with the serious teens at church, one of the things we did was read a chapter a day and started a Bible Journal.
How it works is when we come across something in the Bible, as we have our devotions, that sticks out we wrote a note about that verse or verses. And guess what! What I wrote actually stuck with me.
So the point is if you struggle with remembering what you read in the Bible take notes and start a Bible Journal.
