Eight-month Bible reading check-in (almost), and Change, pt 2

In case I hadn't made it clear in the previous post: changes are afoot.

Bridging the previous post and this post was not well-thought-out, because, well, I just don't have the time. The last post was a well-though-out piece because I originally sketched it about a month ago, when I had more time. As such, it feels complete on its own. However, I have kind of a key update to the updates, where I didn't feel right trying to squeeze it into the last post. So here I go, plus a report on my Bible reading:

The last month's Bible readings have been taking place in the part of the Bible I know the least: the prophets, or everything basically between King David's death and Jesus' birth.

Work is crazy busy, my class begins in a few weeks (I found out it began later than I originally thought!), and I've also begun my second job. I'm excited, although cautious to not get too carried away with anything. I've run ahead of God before, and I need to remain diligent that I don't.

One loose end I realized that needed tying was what to do with the Bible study. Since June, I've all but eliminated the Zoom group, as our one guy primarily responsible for necessitating a Zoom group has been globetrotting and in a time zone that often hasn't worked for the rest of us (unless we meet at like 2 or 3 AM his time). But with the in-person group growing (we are now going steady at 5 people after it being like 2 or 3 people through the spring, praise God!), I really didn't want it to end because God was doing some really good things. But, I have to step back somehow. God worked it out: the father of my love will take over the lessons, and the mother of my love will also attend and participate.

So the Bible study will continue. Not sure what will happen with this blog, but I anticipate I won't be back for a while. We'll see.
