Trusting God in Troubled Times-Mrs. Carol Hopson

I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bibles as
we treat our cell phones?
What if we carried it everywhere in our purses or
pockets?
What if we turned back to get it if we forgot it?
What if we felt totally lost without checking it several
times a day?
What if we treated it as if we couldn't live without it?
What if we checked regularly for messages and
responded promptly to them?
What if we gave it to kids and friends as gifts?
What if we used it in case of an emergency?
Does that give you a little food for thought? It really gets
to my heart. How have we lost sight of the significance and
treasure that we have in God's Word? I think we have
taken our freedom to own, study, and memorize God's Word
for granted so long that it no longer even seems special to
us, and so we are fretting about these troubled times rather
than feasting on God's Word for peace. I once heard a
speaker, who was from Communist Bulgaria, at an
Association of Christian Schools International Convention.
Her family was one of the few Christian families in that
country, and she knew the Lord from an early age. Her
father was a pastor in Bulgaria and was martyred for his
faith when she was a young girl. Her mother and brother
were also killed for their Christian faith, but somehow she
survived.
