Here is a quote I came across about the Bible: “The Scriptures
are shallow enough for a babe to come and drink without fear of drowning
and for theologians to swim in without
ever touching the bottom.” Have you been
swimming in God’s word lately? I love the ways God teaches us. A Scripture read
hundreds of times will suddenly jump off the page with new meaning. A Scripture
meant just for you and me will keep coming up at a time we need it most.
The Word of God is
powerful. It represents Jesus from cover to cover. The longest chapter in the
Bible is Psalm 119 and it is all about the word of God. This Psalm reminds us
to keep the word in our hearts, to delight in it, to draw wisdom from it, to
know God through it.
You are my refuge
and my shield. I have put my hope in your word. Psalm 119:114
Turn to me and have mercy on me as You always do
to those who love Your name. Psalm 119:132
God has changed me
through the Bible. He has confronted me, loved me, given me peace and filled me
with deep joy. Sink yourself into its depths. There is no end to the glory and
grace it will bestow.
For the word of God
is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to
dividing soul and spirit, joint and marrow. It judges the thoughts and
attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
Lord,
Today we thank You for the Bible. Keep us on Your path as the
world goes astray. Keep us focused as we continue to dive into Your word and
its depths.
In Jesus name,
Amen
