Personally, I struggled to develop regular and good reading habits, considering that I was not a bookworm. I really did not enjoy reading before, so Bible reading was a challenge for me. However, this account helped me reflect on the quality of my Bible reading and on how important the Bible’s role is in helping me build a deep relationship with Jehovah.
Also, the WT 02/23 study article helped me apply practical suggestions for developing good reading habits. Slowly, I began to enjoy reading, and it became an important part of my life. It now feels as though the quality of my day depends on whether I read the Bible or not.
So, if you find yourself struggling with Bible reading, this article can help you too.
Remember, reading to understand is a skill we can develop. With Jehovah’s help and his holy spirit, we can turn Bible reading into a daily habit.
