I'm getting really excited about starting our new Bible Study.  I love digging into the texts and studying and learning and growing together in faith.  I guess that sounds pretty hokey, but I don't really care. 
It is simply amazing to me that I can read a scripture passage over and over and get a different understanding with each or almost each reading.  It depends on where my life is, how close God and I are at the moment, what is influencing my thinking, and what is happening in the world.  And once in awhile, it's affected by what somebody just said to me!
THAT is the miracle of scripture to me.  It speaks and if we listen, it teaches, soothes, challenges, calms, refreshes and enlightens.
