Reading the Bible

I have several ways of reading the Bible, and I try to use ALL of them every day. Please note that I said "try". 1: Cover to cover, Genesis to Revelation. Some of it is hard going, but I usually find at least one gem, one nugget. 2: Reading a favorite passage. There are so many I could read over and over. 3: Opening my Bible at random and reading a few verses. Of course, it often opens to one or another of my favorite texts. 4: Reading one of that day's Mass readings. My Bible is in a different translation from that used at Mass. 5: Nightly Gospel passage, read at bedtime.
