Has anyone ever wondered what would happen if we treated our Bibles the same way we do our cell phones? I started wondering just that very thing and here are a few questions that came from this thinking. What if:
- We carried our Bibles around in our pockets and purses?
- We flipped through the Bible several times a day
- We turned back to get it, if we forgot to pick it up
- We used it to receive The Message
- We treated it like we could not live without it
- We gave it to children as gifts
- We took it with us when we traveled
- We used the Bible to recharge us everyday
- We bought a new Bible as often as we upgrade our cell phone
Hopefully this will get you wondering where your Bible is and why you treat your cell phone better than the Word of God. You're cell phone is a worldly thing; God is out of this world and offers a fantastic lifetime warranty. You do not have to worry about a monthly bill from taking your Bible more serious; Jesus paid that price on the cross. You also do not have to worry about dropped calls when reading the Bible, God is always there and he is always listening.
So ask yourself, what are my priorities?
