Hi, Jen. I'm Catholic, so I like to go online and read the daily readings,
and then I go to another website that has commentaries on them and I read
those. I also have several devotional emails that I download into my
BrailleNote, usually in the evening, and read before bed. But I know what
you mean by it being hard to get anything out of it. It's so easy,
especially if it's a reading you've read a zillion times before (and I've
read the Bible through several times) to just kind of look at the words and
let them sail by our consciousness and say, "There, I've done my readings,"
without really reflecting on what we read. I'm sure being blind has
something to do with it, in that like you say, we don't have all the
references and study materials. But I think it's just part of the human
condition. I imagine our sighted buddies struggle with the same stuff.
