I earnestly urge you to make Bible-reading your daily habit. Let it be a fixed principle with you that you need the words of His mouth for your soul’s nourishment and health.
You have found forgiveness through faith in the atoning blood of Christ; and you are supremely happy. But forgiveness is not food. And if you have no food you will have no strength. You will hunger; and the hungry will eat anything.
If you do not go on, applying yourself to the daily reading of your Bible, your famished soul will readily eat of the world’s dainties. But if you are nourished by the hidden manna, you will have no heart for the world’s allurements.
Young Christian, if you would stand before the enemy, if you would walk humbly and happily with your God, if you would be useful in the Lord’s vineyard, search the Scriptures daily and diligently.
