:-) Hope you had a good and restful break over Christmas. I did the opposite and tried to test whether it was actually possible at all to reduce the long long review list that always pops up. Encouraging to see that it actually is possible to (partially) catch up, but it takes a lot of time and discipline to stay caught up! I´ll be soon sliding back into my "routine" of an ever-growing review list, but that´s ok. It´s just taking time daily to study Scripture that I find to be so valuable.
So true. Just reviewing John 17, and touched that Jesus in his hour of need and fear chose to focus his prayers on praying for us. Which Romans 8 echoes (just before v38-39!), as he continues to intercede for us. We are in good company indeed!
How´s it going? I´m enjoying this chapter - a little different from passages I am more familiar with. And there are echoes of the whole Bible throughout it all: the tree of life (Genesis 3), Jesus as the root (Isaiah 11), the light (John 1), the invitation for all to come and drink living water (John 4) without price (Isaiah 55)...it all comes together in this last chapter :-)
So in Genesis 1, the first thing God does is create light. In John 1, the Word becomes light and shines in the darkness and dwells with us. And now in Revelation 22, he finishes by abolishing light - because He himself is light, and nothing will ever again be in shadow. Nice.
Hmm. That actually sounds very plausible. Just went through a chapter I thought I knew well, and I know it reasonably well but not perfectly. Didn't know you could go backwards, but good to know there's no bug in the system that's going to keep me at 90 forever! Thanks :-)
That's happened to me too. I think it's when you get less than 90% when you're retested on a verse you already finished. e.g. when you review a whole chapter, if you don't remember a verse so well, it goes back to the four-and-half star state, and you have to finish it a second time a few weeks later.

It is true. It happened to me. I had 5 stars for Ephesians 6:10-18, and declared "finished" and then I blew it at verse 12, I got a 90%, and it vanished from the finished verses.😳
