What you have stated is true. People nowadays keep on asking where is God when you needed the most? or why is God doing this to us? or God, why me?... They keep on asking questions that the answers are simply written in the Bible. If they only read the Bible then they know that God is in us and we siply keep on resisting His presence; God has a purpose for everything and God wants us to learn lessons for yus to grow and build our character. If you think that reading the Bible is boring then you can keep flashcards with Bible verses and memorize it cause that's what I do aside from attending, hearing and participating in the Eucharistic Celebration almost everyday (my goal is never to miss but there are circumstances we don't have contro of).

I have read my bible for two times already from the Old Testament to New Testament .
But even then, i still do read a verse or two at night,after i have said my night prayer. Somehow, it keeps me guided on things about our lives.
Though, i now read the New Testament only, and some books of the old testament like Isiah and psalms.

Daily. I always get my daily strength from reading my Bible and meditating on the words.

I strive to read the Bible every single day, but sometimes I let other things push it out of my day, and on those days I feel I have really missed out by not putting God's Word first.

I read the bible every morning after taking my bath . It has become a habit . Thereafter I pray to Jesus . I have read the New Testament twice . I just started reading the Old Testament . Now reading Numbers . It gives me immense satisfaction and peace of mind to read the Bible . I was a Hindu but accepted Jesus Christ as my lord in 2008 . Since then Bible has been my guiding spirit . Praise the lord !

Now I read the Bible 2 times normally but if I feel lonely or scared or problematic I read it more than twice a day. I guess the answer to all our problems and questions are there in the Bible.It's good that you find time to read the Bible. God will be very please with you!

That laziness to read Bible is the cunning activity of Satan.Let's win him in the name of God and let's be ready to listen to his words always by reading Bible:)

I try to read one chapter a day at the minimum, but most days I read more. I read about 30 pages a week so that I can complete reading the whole Bible in one year. On January the first I start reading Genesis chapter one and by December thirty-first I try to have finished reading the whole Bible and then start again the next year.

I am really guilty about this. I think I last read the bible when a tsunami hit Japan. I was really curious about getting to read the Revelation and see if there's something written about tsunamis as a form of world destruction.

I've read it in the bible I just can't recall what particular verse it was.
But we don't need another tsunami before we act and repent. It's good to be always prepared for God's coming. We should be good all the time for God's glory. AMEN!
Thanks staria!

Before I have no interest in reading the bible but after meeting someone who made my life new I've got interest in reading it, I often read the bible when i have time , but really sometimes satan really bad to convince you do lie, that's why I always commits myself to often go to church and meditate and pray , open the bible as often so that i myself will be calm... and always connected to the spirits of God ..,
