The Lost Word
After coming home from church tonight, my mother and I were talking about the service. She quoted a scripture and then I asked were is that found in the bible. She then asked for her bible and that's when we realized that the WORD was LOST aka the Bible.
I began to think, as I sat down to do this weeks devotion, have we lost the word as Christians?
The bible teaches us about faith, hope, and love. It tells us about standing on the promise of God. It even tells us about standing up for what we believe in.
But how many of us have shied away from the truth, Gods word. Are we just trusting on our self to get through rough times? Are we just living day to day instead if standing on His promise.
Have you lost the word? When's the last time you went looking for it? Do you just look for it when you need it and then throw it back out again?
God gave us His word to stand on, and not to let it gather dust or to be lost.
I challenge you to find your word today, read what God has in store for you.
The bible tells us "to hide its word in our hearts. Psalm 119:11"
Lord help use today not to lose Your word. Help us to always keep it close to us. Help us to relay on your word and not on our self.
