I'd like to use this blog to explain better how to use a very useful tool for the life of anyone wishing to get to know the God of Creation(1) as revealed through the Bible and then how to communicate with Him.
He loves the world(2) and want everyone to know Him(3) and do His will(4). This tool should help greatly.
It is "A Prayer Notebook" to be used as a personally written journal for daily, and if not that, a regular and methodical(5) and purposeful way to communicate with the only true God(6), and as result of that, to worship Him "in spirit and in truth.(7)"
If you can accept the Bible as truth and the true revealer of God, you can have a personal and intimate relationship with Him. I will be using a version which I consider trustworthy for understanding, and I hope you can join me in this journey.

If you read the above scriptures as complete verses all the way through once, and then re-read the Green boldface only, you will begin to understand how God can speak to us through His word when the Bible's principles are emphasized. This is my attempt to "rightly divide the Word of Truth" (2 Tim 2:15)
