My husband and I recently enrolled in a Bible Institute in Long Island. We drive almost 4 hours once a month to spend a weekend in classes, studying the Word. And it is definitely worth the travel, time and financial commitment. The more we study, the more we are aware of the power in the Word of God. It seeps into the deepest part of our hearts, bringing change, renewal, and strength. The Word covers us with protection. Fills us with joy. Convicts us of sin. Offers us grace. The more we read it, memorize it, study it, the more alive it is in our lives.
I challenge you this week to spend some time every day reading your Bible. Allow God to speak to you. You may be surprised what a difference it makes in your week. And on a side note, even your writing will be better because of it!
