Well another Sunday has passed and we have taken our Bibles and put them in their "special places". I think everyone has their "special place" for their Bibles. We take it and place it where we can see it and know where it's at, at all times. Some of us put all sorts of things in our Bible. You see people every Sunday open their Bible and stuff fall out of it! You may have even helped picking their things off the floor. Our Bibles even serves as our secret place to hide things. We put money or papers we deem valuable in our Bibles. It makes us feel secure because no one better mess with our Bibles! Better not touch it! Better not open it up! Better not read it! It's our Bibles, and we put it in it's own "special place" until Sunday. (smile)
Those things we store in our Bibles all have their own places. Just as those things have their own places, the Bible does too. It's a very , very special place that God created for it. That special place is "within us". We are God's special place where He wants to place His very special Word. How do we get His Word in us? 2 Timothy 2:15 gives us the answer. We must study to be approved! We must study to be able to pass the test! We are tested daily, how can we pass these test if we don't study? The answer to every test is in God's Word, but we have to study.
We all have our "special places" for our Bibles, but let us try to put the Bible in the place where God wants it: "within us". A very, very, "special place" to God.
"Father, gives the strength to study your Word so we can pass the tests that come into our lives." In Jesus name,AMEN
