Time With Abba

Time With Abba or TWA... is something we learned at SJCAC.  Daily devotions in reading the bible in a year. 

It's a sensitive topic.... insofar as some people think it's more of an obligation than a means of reading the bible.  To some, they do it, cuz if they don't... it's a sin.  And to others... you HAVE to read the daily scriptures and highlight the words according to the rules.  And if you don't...if you highlight in a different color... if you want to read a different passage, it's rebelling against authority and not-submitting. 

This year... Joyce went on a different daily devotion plan.  She's going through the Chronological Bible.  Not only that... she listens to it in the morning while driving the kids to the car.  She's been doing this for almost the entire year.  And the most important thing... she makes the kids listen to it.  Then she asks them... "What did you hear?" and "What is God saying to you??" 

I didn't realize she was doing this until our recent family road trip.  And oddly enough...the kids respond.  And they truly do listen to God.  Wow......Wow.... in a round about way... she's training our kids to do TWA.  Or to read/listen to the bible daily.

My wife.... I love her.
