Today, I am thankful for the Bible. I know that may seem "understood" coming from a pastor, but I'm not writing this post as a pastor. I'm writing this as a person who happens to be a pastor. I have always had a fondness of the Bible. I was raised in a home where my parents were believers in Jesus Christ. They thought that the Bible was important. While other children got stories of bears, dragons, and other characters, my sister and I were told the stories of the Old Testament along with Psalms many times before bed.
I have come to see the Bible as much more than just a good "bedtime" storybook. It is the only book that I know of that is alive (Hebrews 4:12). It is not just a collection of thoughts about God, but it is actually the word of God (2 Timothy 3:16-17). I do not have to wonder what or how God thinks about a topic. All I have to do is open this letter that He has provided, and He lets me know.
What impact has this wonderful word had on your life?
