I own a Bible, but I
have rarely opened it. Hearing last Thursday, “…the Word of God is living and
effective, sharper than any two-edged sword…” makes me wonder about
opportunities missed by not incorporating scripture into my life more often.
Last night I was
thinking about my recent struggles in the workplace. So I tried to clear my
mind of the day’s many thoughts and to focus on what was vexing me most. Then I
opened the Bible.
The page I had randomly
opened to was Psalm 4: Evening Prayer for Help. It spoke directly to my most
pressing needs and was exactly what I needed to hear from God in that moment.
How amazing.
What else did I learn
from last Thursday? Scripture is necessary to give us courage in our everyday
lives. Don’t take the burden on yourself. God’s Word will help you. Start a
journal to clarify and remember your thoughts.
