My Bible-reading goals are the same each year. I like to read the Old Testament biannually, the New Testament quarterly, and Psalms and Proverbs monthly. Although I switch up translations from time to time, my go-to translation is the New International Version (NIV).

For some time, I’ve been searching for a pocket-size Psalter with Proverbs that is readable. Pocket-size New Testaments with Psalms and Proverbs are easy to find in multiple translations, but they all are printed in a two-column format with a small font. My aging eyes have a very difficult time reading them.

While browsing in a Christian bookstore, the other day, I picked up the NIV’s Psalms and Proverbs: Poetry and Wisdom for Today. I didn’t even know this product was on the market, but it was exactly what I was looking for! It is printed in a single-column format with a readable font. Plus, being pocket size, it’s easy to carry with me wherever I go.

Everyone’s Bible-reading goals are different, of course, but if yours are like mine, I’d encourage you to get Psalms and Proverbs. Every day I read a chapter from Proverbs and the day’s allotted psalms, following this rubric:

The Psalms are some of my favorite scripture, and I also enjoy Proverbs. I decided I was going to read this this year, a bit at a time so I could absorb better, and found this version. I love the feel of it. It is small so you could put in your purse…maybe a large pocket. But, the font an feel is not tiny. It has a built in ribbon bookmark that really stays put. I enjoy the NIV translation, and was very happy this was. I have read all the way through cover to cover this year, but this will be near me when I am doing devotional times as it is such an easy to read, and easy to handle version. Recommend as a gift as it really is well made.
