As we go through this plan, you could use S.O.A.P. - Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer. If you are journaling, this is a great way to format your notes.

You can write down the scripture reference for the day in your journal and then put your phone away if you don’t want it as a distraction. Then, you can note what you observe in the passage, how does it fit in with the overall theme for the week? Next, are there any applications for your own life? Sometimes there might be an obvious connection and sometimes maybe not, this is fine; we do not need to try and force it because sometimes it is the wider story that provides us with an application. Finally, end with prayer, thanking the Lord for all he is showing you.
