Brief Thought on Bible Reading

I was thinking today how much of my life I have read the Bible in order to inform me whether or not I can do this or that. I then thought how different it would be if I read the Bible in order to show me how to live my life. I am frustrated when I read a passage and the only question I ask myself is, “Am I doing this right?”; which isn’t a bad question necessarily. But I think there is a better question to ask—“How can my life look like this?”
