S.O.A.P.

A great acrostic for how to study God's Word.

S - Scripture

O - Observations

A - Application (to my life)

P - Prayer

I like the soap, it goes along great with how we desperately need the daily washing of the Word in our lives. Many times I just read, but don't always pay attention to application in my own life. This is a challenge for me to take my Bible reading a step further. Such a simple thing, and yet many times it's the easy things that I hurry over. May God draw us all deeper into His Word, and give us eyes and ears to see and hear what He is speaking to us. I know He's speaking, but am I listening?
