Today I am perusing,
my Bible in my hand
with the intent . . .
to follow its command.
I’m reading carefully,
what God has to say
with the intent . . .
to listen and obey.
Today I’m pouring over,
the verses on the page
with the intent . . .
their wisdom I’ll engage.
I’m studying each word,
looking up their meaning
with the intent . . .
my soul they’ll be feeding.
Today I’m perusing,
my Bible I am scouring
for God’s Word I know . . .
I need to be devouring!
~~~~~~~~
Study to shew thyself
approved unto God,
a workman that needeth
not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing
the word of truth.

Reblogged this on A Perspective From The Pew & Street and commented:
Deborahs sticky notes and poems have brought me a blessing for many years. Sometimes I just read them in passing through her post and never respond yet they touch me every time and uplift and encourage me. I am thankful for that. This poem is a profound statement and holds much truth and a key to the kingdom go God. Thank you again Deborah. Much love Tom

Amen! I have to stop thinking of reading the Word of God as a chore, but as a necessity. Thank you for the reminder.
