I have been married for nearly four decades and in that time, although I think I know Craig better than any other human being on planet Earth, there are still moments when I exclaim, “Why, I didn’t know that about you!”
We are humans and finite beings and yet a lifetime is still not enough to truly know all of the facets of the love of your life.
When it comes to getting to know God, if you live to be 109 years old and spend your entire life on this incredible quest to know Him, you will only be acquainted with a minute piece of God’s infinite and amazing character. If the goal of your life’s journey is to know God, you must spend time reading His love letter that was written to you for just that very purpose.
When you determine to read your Bible regardless of your circumstances, you will be the recipient of a peace in your soul that is unable to be denied. When you daily spend time in the Word of God, a purpose will flood your being and you will be convinced of His great goodness toward you.
So many Christians use the excuse, “I don’t understand the Bible. That’s why I don’t read it.”
To that weak excuse of justification, I often reply, “Christians don’t primarily read the Bible for information but for transformation.”
When you read the Bible, a miracle happens in the deepest part of you and the strengthening that happens is a miracle.
The Bridegroom is so in love with you that He has written an eternal love letter from His heart to yours ... will you read it? Or will it grow dusty on some shelf cluttered with magazines and New York Times bestsellers? If you say that you are His friend, you will spend time getting to know Him. If you respond to His call of love, you will understand the value of who He is and what He has said.

About this Plan
“Extraordinary Ordinary!” is a challenge to live well and embrace the life you have been given with no regrets. We must each accept responsibility for our own lives with no blame or aspersions cast in the direction of others and their choices. You, in partnership with God, will design the life that will occupy the length of your days. While you may not be able to determine all of the events and circumstances of your life, the atmosphere of your life is entirely up to you.
