Cell Phone vs. The Bible - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

I got this really neat email today and wanted to share it with you all.....

CELL PHONE vs. BIBLE

I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cell phone?

What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?

What if we flipped through it several times a day?

What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?

What if we used it to receive messages from the text?

What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

What if we gave it to kids as gifts?

What if we used it when we traveled?

What if we used it in case of emergency?

This is something to make you go....hmm...where is my Bible?

So remember this...

You'll never have dropped calls and unlike our cell phone, we don't have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill.

But most important of all...you'll never have to ask Him 'Can you hear me now?'

Makes you stop and think, 'Where are my priorities?'

Hmmm! Good point!

What if I could never read the bible again, and how much of it would I have stored away in my memory...in my heart?

That's a great post, thanks. I'm going to pick up and read a bit right now.

A friend, actually a co worker of mine sent that to me. She also gave me the Beth Moore book 90 days with the one & only ....90 days with Jesus. It's really neat, I'm working on that one too, it has scripture readings in it as well.
