How did the principle of two-way communication (prayer and Bible reading) impress you? Why?
-
Prayer and Bible reading is like communication with people. In prayer, I am telling God my needs and in Bible reading, God is telling me what I need to know, his will and truth. It is a dynamic interaction and through it, I can learn what God wants of me and I can draw closer to God.

After purchasing my first Bible plan, prayer and scripture have been my favorite ways of communicating with Jesus. Writing down lessons, verses, ideas, and questions also keep me centered.

It’s hard to think of a book as a part of a two-way communication, but it makes sense. It also will stop you from think of devotional time as a list of needs/wants that you ask for and that it’s not all about you.
-
It was a good reminder that God wants to hear more than just my problems or requests – he wants to hear what I’m grateful for; but he also wants to speak to me and lead me forward.

It was very revealing to call the Bible “a love letter from our Heavenly Father.” That created a meaningful way of viewing the Bible as I read it, as if the same caring voice is talking to me on every single page. I think that answers the two questions given.
