So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God, belongs to you in Zion.

I think if anyone ever knew- REALLY *knew*- why the universe is here (I know part of it BTW: God created the universe and everything in it- like planet Earth- so that His children (human beings) could come here (to Earth) to learn and grow and someday become like Him) then she would know why she is here (to learn and grow and return to heaven a better person, someone more like the Father) and would- if she really and truly KNEW why she is here in the universe- also know what her part is in it, what her GOAL is, and what she has to do to.... finish, if you will. Reach the goal, complete the journey, etc. And if she really KNEW what it took to get to the end, she would be able to do it, because God has never given anyone a challenge the couldn't overcome. And she would, eventually, reach the goal -to become like the Father and live with Him in eternal glory in heaven- and be happy, forever.
