Slow is OK :) It's much more important to have the right attitude towards God's Word. What comes to my mind is Isaiah 66:2b: "But to this one will I look, to him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My Word." (NASB)
Having said that ... I have my moments when I am humble and contrite, and I have many other moments when I am proud. I pray that I would be more consistently humble.
