Each day for a month read the same (one or more) of the passages listed. Or feel free to substitute your own favorite verse, chapter or book of the Bible. The goal is just to read the same passage(s) every day for a month. You can memorize, meditate, write or just read, but try to do it every day. Put the verse(s) up somewhere you can see them, bookmark or write them down somewhere.
