What if we began to treat our Bibles the way we treat our cellphones? Imagine the impact on our spiritual lives if we carried our Bibles with us everywhere. How often do we forget our phones, only to turn back to fetch them? Yet, how often do we leave our Bibles behind without a second thought?
What if we checked our Bibles for messages throughout the day, seeking guidance and wisdom instead of just scrolling through social media? In times of emergency, we instinctively reach for our phones. But how many times do we turn to Scripture when faced with trials? Finally, consider dedicating an hour or more to immerse ourselves in the Word daily.
By prioritizing our relationship with God through His Word, we can find strength, comfort, and direction, much like we do with our phones.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of Your Word, which guides and sustains us. Help us to cherish our Bibles as we would our most prized possessions. Teach us to carry it everywhere, to seek You in emergencies, and to dedicate time to study and reflect on Your promises. May we prioritize our relationship with You and draw closer to You each day. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.
