Cell Phones vs. The BIBLE

I wonder what would happen if we treated our BIBLE
like we treat our cell PHONES?

What if we carried it around in our Purses or pockets?

What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?

What if we flipped thrugh it several times a day?

What if we used it to receive messages from the tex?

What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

What if we gave it to kids as a gift?

What if we used it as we traveled?

What if we used it in case of of an emergency?

What if we upgraded it to get the latest version?

This something to make you go....hmmm..where
is my BIBLE?

Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone,
we don't have to worry about our BIBLE being
disconnected because JESUS has already paid the bill.!!

Good post, CL. As long as people use better manners than they do with their cell phones. I don't care to hear another person's message to their caller in line. Working with the public, I think they've become such a rude appliance. I think a peaceful silent reading of some biblical passages might be a welcome reprieve for the rest of us who don't want to hear other's calls.

Nonlem,

If we read the BIBLE as much as we talked on a cell phone,
maybe it would be a better world to live in. Including our children
and myself. Very Happy
