How I do love your law! I ponder over it all day long.—Ps. 119:97.

 

When you do your Bible reading, be sure to look for ways to apply what you read. As you go over a portion of God’s Word, ask yourself, ‘How can I apply this information now or in the near future?’ To illustrate, let’s say that your Bible reading included 1 Thessalonians 5:17, 18. After reading those two verses, you could stop and think of how often and how deeply you pray. Also, you could reflect on things for which you are grateful. Maybe you determine that you will thank Jehovah for three specific things. With even a few minutes of such focused attention, you will to some extent become a hearer and a doer of God’s Word. Think of how you would benefit by repeating this process each day with other portions of the Bible that you read! Yes, you will grow as a doer of God’s Word. w24.09 4-5 ¶9-10

There is a difference between reading something… and letting it stay with you.

It is good to have paper and pen nearby to jot down some thoughts we would like to mention in our many conversations with our heavenly Father throughout the day. It could be a point that our friends on this forum have so painstakingly meditated on and expounded it for us to fully understand the scope of Jehovah’s love.
