<<<Looking back on 2016>>>
I am amazed and thankful that I am still living
(this life that God has purposed for me:)

Okay,
I'll stop here -
Now, if you type into google, "How many promises are there in the Bible?" the answers range anywhere from 1000 to over 7000...
I'm not counting, nor did I look at any of the supporting info. But having been a Christian for over 32 years now, and having read my Bible daily (well most days:)
There are really far too many promises to list -
too many yet to come,
both personal and for all that call on the name of Jesus!
you need to read them - claim them as yours !
Make a promise to yourself to read the Bible daily in 2017
Fun Facts: I did check out this blog on Bible facts and stats @ amazingbibletimeline.com (written in 4.2013), it quotes some fun Bible facts; 'did you know you can read the whole KJV Bible aloud in 70 hours? or that Galatians 1:14 contains all the letters of the alphabet except the letter k? and the longest name is Mahershalalhashbaz.' (I'll leave you to look up in what book:)
