Cellphone vs. Bible

Here’s a little message I’ve had for several months that I’ve been meaning to get in the paper: I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cellphone? 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 our kids as gifts? What if we used it when we traveled? What if we used it in case of emergency? It makes you think, ‘Where are my priorities’? With a Bible, there are never any roaming fees. There are no service contracts and no monthly payments. And there are no dropped calls.
