Hi Jennifer, Yeah, I thought that if I put short passages from the Gospels, Epistles, Proverbs and Psalms, the words of Scripture themselves would provide blessing to those who stumbled upon my blog–whether my annotations proved inspiring–or not!! 🙂

I'm praying for more of a hunger for God's word, as much as I need air to breathe, which is how it's supposed to be. Yet I go days at a time, while always in prayer, not always reading the Bible.

Stats? I think I looked at mine once about four years ago, so I have no idea if people read me or not unless they leave a note. It might depress me to look at them…or inspire me, I'm not sure which!

Trying to blog through the Bible is a bit of a step of faith for me, and I get excited when stats show that people are reading it. I am really enjoying it–though it is certainly an enormous and challenging project!!
