I DID IT! I set a goal and I accomplished it. I am embarrassed to say how long it's taken me, but I'm glad I did it.
A while back in General Conference (April of 2007) M. Russel Ballard gave a talk on the Miracle of the Bible. I very strongly felt that I needed to read the Old Testament. I have tried many times to read it, and get into Leviticus and have a hard time getting through it. This time I plugged along, and I was able to accomplish my goal. I was able to finish on Sept. 18Th, 2008. It felt good to do it, hopefully I'll be better about setting goals and accomplishing them.
I am thankful for the Scriptures which our Heavenly Father has given us. We have a loving Father who has provided us with a way to learn, and do in some cases and avoid in others, things that will help us grow closer to Him.
