Over the next three days, I have three very important questions for each of us to consider. Let me share these with you and then we will come back and consider the Scripture.
Three very good questions! I wonder how many questions the average person asks during any given day. I am sure that we would be surprised with the number of the many, many questions that are asked and answered in a typical twenty-four-hour period of time. Here are three questions that are very important for us retirees to be asking ourselves.
The Word- Am I in God’s Word daily? (Colossians 3:16).
The Way- How am I living in the world and in my home today? (Colossians 3:12-13).
The Worship- Am I truly worshipping the Lord each day? (Colossians 3:1-4).
Today: The Word- Am I in God’s Word daily? “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom: teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord” (Colossians 3:16).
I can’t help but think of the fact that here in America we have lots of Bibles in our homes, but somehow it seems like less and less Bible lived out in lives. Here are a couple of little thoughts that have big impacts on our lives when it comes to God’s Word.
Open it daily.
Read it slowly.
Believe it fully.
Apply it accurately.
Live it graciously.
For today: I want God’s Word to dwell (be residing) in me. What a wonderful love letter He has written to us.
