Week 2 Day 1 Read again and again.

Rereading consists of on-going and repeated encounters with a text, guided by a particular task so that segments of the text get revisited and rethought. Rereading is the most effective type of reading, because it offers readers the opportunity to re-think messages and see features they have not noticed in initial reading. Mediating on God's word, consist of re-reading scripture until we can turn it over in our heads without the text in front of us.

 Race (Philippians 3:12-14)
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.  Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
