Reading Forward


Perhaps I'm writing only to myself today. If you have a problem in life, if you feel stuck, the best remedy of all may be reading. Therapy, rest, counseling, time off, coaching, and the like all come second sometimes to simply reading. We can change our lives by reading a book. Most people don't read. Few people ever finish a book. Just by reading a good book from cover to cover, you set yourself apart. Anyone can do this. There are still libraries too, where you can borrow great books at no cost. Through books you can be mentored, coached, counseled by the best and brightest minds in history. Books can bring you inside the minds of the most influential people in the world.

Oh, and the Word of God is a book. You can read it too. Anytime. All its power and truth can be put in your mind and heart. What can stop you? Reading is, perhaps, the key determinant for greatness and significance in life. You are what you read far more than you are what you eat! What a gift. Read forward.
