As we know some of us don't read the bible everyday, and only read it when we're free of during church. During my CCA (Girls' Brigade), while devotion my school's church's Chaplin told us something about spiritual discipline. That we have to read the bible and pray everyday and not only when we are free.The importance of the Bible:
- It is the word of the creator God for life
- It is about God and Man living together
- It is to know him and make him known
We all know the importance of the Bible but do we make it important in our lives?
How do we know more about God through the Bible?
- The Hand Method
- Little Finger = Hear
- Ring Finger = Read
- Middle Finger = Study
- Index Finger = Memorise
- Thumb = Reflect/ Meditate
The importance of prayer
- It is relating with God through Communication
While praying, most Christains pray for themselves first, however, that should come last when praying. Why? Because it is not about us, it is about God.
How to Pray?
Praise & thanksgiving
Repentance from sin
Asking for others
Yourself last in asking
For those who are feeling down or feel like giving up hope...
Cheer up! :) For you are a gift from God and a blessing!
" The joy of the Lord is your strength." Nehemiah 8: 10
To end this I have quote for ya'll:
" The Sun can break through the darkest cloud; love can brighten the gloomiest day"
-William Arthur Ward
-Evangeline
