     One of the hardest things to do, in a program like this, is to get started.  So, don't be discouraged.  Keep at it, until reading God’s word is a habit.  If you fall behind in your reading, use the blank spaces to catch up or simply drop back a week.  Satan does not want you to do this reading because he knows that you will be able to better resist him as you plant the Word of God in your heart.  Start every session with a prayer for understanding and for growth.  Read the daily questions and consider them as you read the Scriptures.  In the “God’s Word In Me!!!” section, think about the questions and this week’s reading.  What did God say to you through His Word?  This is not intended to be an indepth study of the Word… just get a main point or new teaching.  Try to write something under each question each week, daily if you can.  Use additional paper as needed for your thoughts.
