Question: What Role Does The Bible Play In Daily Life?
July 23rd, 2009I often pray, “God let me see the Scripture in this.” When I’m in some kind of relational situation or counseling someone or facing an opportunity in my life, I ask God to show me true wisdom by bringing to mind Bible verses that apply to what I’m seeing.
Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly…”
So what role, if any, does the Bible play in your life?

In my life the Bible is my source for so many things. . .
- It’s my source of truth when I’m questioning what is right
- It’s my source of comfort when I’m hurting
- It’s my source of strength when I’m feeling overwhelmed and unable to go on
- It’s where I go when I want to hear from God. . .and when He speaks to me so many times God speaks directly through His word whether it’s in front of me where I can see the words on the page or just bringing to mind verses I’ve read recently or not so recently.
Thanks for the reminder Chris to be praying Colossians 3:!6 . . . May God’s word truly dwell in us richly!
