How
easy
is
it
for
you
to
let
dust
collect
on
your
Bible?
There
was
a
time
when
I
was
first
searching
out
the
truth
about
Jesus
Christ
that
I
was
embarrassed
to
let
friends
see
the
bible
I
had
purchased
sitting
in
my
living
room.
Then
there
was
a
season
during
which
I
was
so
proud
to
have
my
study
bible
laying
open
with
a
bookmark,
highlighter
and
note
paper
nearby.
Then
my
bible
started
to
just
feel
like
an
extension
of
my
own
body...
always
there,
always
ready.
Then
the
bible
collection
began...
I
wanted
different
versions,
different
purposes,
different
looks
and
different
styles.
A
bible
for
my
bedroom,
a
bible
for
the
car
and
a
bible
just
in
case
someone
needs
one.
And
sadly...
there
has
been
a
season
in
my
life
where
my
bible
collected
dust.
How
can
that
be?
Why
read
the
Bible?
A.
It
shows
you
the
right
path.
B.
It
alerts
you
when
you
are
getting
off
the
right
path.
C.
It
teaches
you
how
to
get
back
on
the
right
path.
D.
It
empowers
you
to
stay
on
the
right
path.
Isn't
that
what
life
is
all
about?
Finding
and
staying
on
the
right
path?
And
isn't
life
always
trying
to
get
us
off
of
the
right
path?
The
Bible
is
our
Path
Guide.
We
dare
not
let
it
collect
dust
- or
worse
yet,
be
left
behind
completely.
Joel
Osteen
and
his
father
before
him
begin
every
service
at
Lakewood
Church
by
leading
the
entire
congregation
in a
simple
prayer
of
confession
and
it
starts
like
this:
“This
is
my
Bible:
I am
what
it
says
I
am;
I
have
what
it
says
I
have;
I
can
do
what
it
says
I
can
do.”
When
you
open
your
Bible
to
spend
some
quiet
time
with
your
God
- Do
you
believe
that
you
are
what
the
Bible
says
you
are?
Do
you
believe
that
you
have
what
it
says
you
have?
Do
you
really
believe
that
you
can
do
what
it
says
you
can
do?
How
will
you
approach
your
Bible
today?
