Cell Phones vs The Bible

I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cell phones.
What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if we flipped through it several times a day?
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 as we traveled?
What if we used it in case of an emergency?
This is something to make you go …hmm…where is my Bible?
Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone, we don’t ever have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because the bill has already been paid by our Lord Jesus Christ.
I hope this makes you stop and think.. “Where are my priorities?” And remember: with HIM there are no dropped calls
Cast your bread upon the waters.

CAST YOUR BREAD UPON THE WATERS, FOR AFTER MANY DAYS YOU WILL FIND IT AGAIN. GIVE PORTIONS TO SEVEN, YES TO EIGHT, FOR YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT DISASTER MAY COME UPON THE LAND. ECCLESIASTES 11:1-2 *NIV
Many people have wondered what is meant by “Cast your bread upon the water, and you will find it.” Well, it is An old Hebrew Idiom meaning to give to charity and it will be returned to you.
After all it is written: HE WHO IS KIND TO THE POOR LENDS TO THE LORD, AND HE WILL REWARD HIM FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE. PROVERBS 19:17 This is because, THERE WILL ALWAYS BE POOR PEOPLE IN THE LAND. THEREFORE I COMMAND YOU TO BE OPENHANDED TOWARD YOUR BROTHERS AND TOWARD THE POOR AND NEEDY IN YOUR LAND. DEUTERONOMY 15:11
So, always remember those who are in need, and the homeless among us: SO THE POOR HAVE HOPE, AND INJUSTICE SHUTS ITS MOUTH. JOB 5:16 After all our Savior Jesus Christ said, “I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, WHAT-EVER YOU DID FOR ONE OF THE LEAST OF THESE BROTHERS OF MINE, YOU DID FOR ME.” MATTHEW 25:40 Amen
Be positive in your thoughts

WHY ARE YOU TROUBLED, AND WHY DO DOUBTS RISE IN YOUR MINDS? LUKE 24:38 *NIV
We are all Architects of our own future! The thoughts we have today dictate what our future holds for us tomorrow. Therefore a person who has positive thoughts shall have positive results, just as a person who has negative thoughts shall attract negative results in their life.
Therefore if we start our day by counting all of our blessings, and then try our best to have positive thoughts all day, our hearts will be merry! After all, BLESSINGS CROWN THE HEAD OF THE RIGHTEOUS, because, FROM THE FULLNESS OF HIS GRACE WE HAVE ALL RECEIVED ONE BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER. [ PROVERBS 10:6 & JOHN 1:16]
After all, EVERY GOOD AND PERFECT GIFT IS FROM ABOVE, COMING DOWN FROM THE FATHER OF THE HEAVENLY LIGHTS, WHO DOES NOT CHANGE LIKE SHIFTING SHADOWS. JAMES 1:17
So, SING AND MAKE MUSIC IN YOUR HEART TO THE LORD, ALWAYS GIVING THANKS TO GOD THE FATHER FOR EVERYTHING, IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. EPHESIANS 5:19-20
Have a wonderful day feeling blessed, and may God’s Grace be with you! Amen!
