Resolution or not?

I'm not calling it a resolution, and I didn't even decide to do it before the new year or on new years day, but like a week and a half later. So, I will just say that I have decided to read through the whole bible. So I started a one year bible plan on youversion.com,  I have read lots of parts of the bible but never the whole thing all the way through. I feel intrigued there are parts that are confusing like all the son of's and daughters of's. However I get drawn into stories like a good book, and I think that's how it should be. I hope that it stays that way. Every good book, has some part that you don't like, or seems to drag on, that you just read through, because you desire to know the whole story.

I have also noticed that things that I have read before stick out to me now. Like this verse:
3 Then the LORD said, “My Spirit will not put up witht humans for such a long time, for they are only mortal flesh. In the future, their normal lifespan will be no more than 120 years.” Genesis 6:3


I never really realized that it was all the crappy things that man was doing, that was frustrating God, made him decide that He wasn't going to let us live to be 900 years old anymore. It's just interesting!


I also read in Genesis 5,  about all these men having their first sons when they were 65 all the way to 187 years old. That is crazy to me. And I know its different because they lived to be 800 plus years old, but still here I am 26 going crazy that I haven't had a child yet. They had to wait 65 years or longer to have a child. I can't even imagine that, but I also can't imagine being 900 years old either.
