October 17th-23rd: Jeremiah 30-33; 36; Lamentations 1; 3
This approach is working so much better for us!
I was personally struggling spiritually. I could see Heavenly Father’s hand in my life but He seemed so far away. This method of study has helped me to turn to Him and my Savior Jesus Christ and begin the process of rebuilding the close relationship we once had.
To be able to cover the prompts from the Come Follow Me Manuals we didn’t really read the chapters, we just looked at the pointed out verses. Now we are truly IN the scriptures. My kiddos are excited to pull theirs out and happy to take a turn reading! They ask questions, they make comments, they initiate discussions and/or participate in them.
I hope that this experience helps you see that if something isn’t working for you, find a different way, don’t walk away. Sometimes you cry out in desperation and He helps you see what you are unknowingly looking for, sometimes it takes multiple tries.
