My reflections after reading the first two Surahs

Assalamu alaikum! A while ago, I shared that I intended to read the entire Quran from beginning to end for deeper understanding, alhamdulillah. Now that I've completed the first two Surahs, I wanted to offer a brief update on my experience. One thing that really struck me is the distinct way the Quran starts compared to the Christian Bible. The Bible commences with Genesis, describing God's creation of humanity and declaring it good, with early narratives focusing on divine love and punishment only following sin-it feels like it opens with a theme of love. In contrast, the Quran opens by emphasizing the power and majesty of Allah, may He be glorified, affirming that He alone is deserving of all praise and worship. Shortly after the introduction, it reminds us that all perfect praise belongs to Allah. I'm truly enjoying this spiritual journey so far, alhamdulillah! I have a knowledgeable Muslim friend, and I plan to read the remainder of the Quran with him, seeking his guidance to help clarify any questions along the way. I'd appreciate any thoughts or advice from others as I continue. JazakAllah khair in advance!
