aith was new to sixteen-year-old Nathaniel and he was excited by what God was doing in his life, so he decided to paint something over the graffiti he had left on the local dairy. This time with permission! He wanted everyone to see what God had been saying to him.
about the changes that had happened in his life, and even harder to tell them he wanted to live differently. But Nathaniel had been reading his Bible and he was in the process of discovering that as he did, his life was changing.
He painted: Speak the truth even if your voice shakes.
Like Nathaniel, our lives can be changed by reading the Bible. The question is: What helps us read the Bible so that this can happen for us?
Speaking out truth had been a challenge to Nathaniel. He had found it hard to tell his friends
It helps if we can recognise that reading the Bible is about far more than just reading
