Study The Word

I love Bibles. I love their smell, their look, and their feel. I love to carry my slimline Bible in my purse so I can open it whenever the mood strikes me to look something up or read a few verses. This is also a great way to fit extra study time into a busy schedule. I can spend a few minutes studying His word when I am waiting somewhere, since I have a Bible at hand. I’m so blessed that I have the freedom to carry a Bible and study His word anywhere I choose. The great thing about reading the Bible is that it’s not just useless reading; it will help us to learn and grow as people as well as Christians.

We do need to be careful, however, to not just fit God into our little minutes, but to set aside time for Him before we plan other things. He wants the best of us, not the leftovers. This month, let’s make a commitment to study His word every day, and I believe that by the end of the month we’ll find ourselves getting excited to dig into our Bibles, and we’ll have a much better attitude and purer outlook on life.

Don’t wait until tomorrow to begin reading. Start today; continue tomorrow.
