Dear Young Christian:

Do you know where your Bible is this morning, or would you have to go and search for it? Is your Bible well-worn from being well-read? A few days ago I was looking through an old cookbook (not that I do much cooking). And came upon a piece of paper with the following statement:

A Bible that’s falling apart

probably belongs to someone who isn’t!

I earnestly urge you to make Bible reading your daily habit. Let it be a fixed principle with you that you daily need the Word of God. Be like Job, who said, “Neither have I gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food” (Job 23:12). If you do not keep applying yourself to the daily reading of your Bible, your famished soul will readily eat of the world’s dainties. But if you are filled with the bread of heaven you will have no taste for what the world offers.

Your Christian Friend,

 Jim Hyland

We would love to hear from you.
