Ever wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cell phone? What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets? What if we flipped through it several times a day? What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it? What if we used it to receive messages from the text? What if we used it to reach other people? 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 when we traveled? What if we used it in case of emergency?And unlike our cell phone, we don't have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill. And no dropped calls! These kind of thoughts make you go...hmm... where is my Bible? Makes you stop and think 'where are my priorities’?
In our generation, there is obviously a big battle we must all face between God and this world. I am not saying cellphones are bad and that we should all become hemits so we can pray all day (?!) But think about, How much time do we spend on our phones? The computer? The TV? iPods, iPads, and all things 'i'. How much reading the Bibles? Maybe Some of you can honestly say that you always put God first and keep the rest of the convieniances we are blessed with in perspective (I wish I could). Still, no one in thier right mind can deny that we live in a dangerous place. That Satan disguises many idols, not just tiny statues. It's scary to think that I am in this generation. When you think of the word 'teenager' honestly, what comes to mind? I immediatly think of negative things, (which I know I am capable of but would never think of doing) and I'm a teenager! As a reminder, I am no where near winning the battle but these are my true thoughts and I know with my Prince I can win. But, I want to know, what do YOU think of this battle Bible vs. Cellphone?
