The Guidebook

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work" -- 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NKJV)
 
God has given us a guidebook for righteous living called the Holy Bible.  It contains thorough instructions which, if followed, lead to fulfillment, righteousness, and salvation.  But, if we choose to ignore God's commandments, the results are as predictable as they are tragic.
 
God has given us the Bible for the purpose of knowing His promises, His power, His commandments, His wisdom, His love, and His Son. As we study God's teachings, and apply them to our lives, we live by the Word that shall never pass away.
Today, let us follow God's commandments, and let us conduct our lives in such a way that we might be shining examples to our families, and, most importantly, to those who have not yet found Christ.
 
As we journey through this life, Lord, help us always to consult the true road map: Your Holy Word. We know that when we turn our heart and thoughts to You, Father, You will lead us along  the path that is right for us.  Today, dear Lord, let us know Your will and study Your Word so that we might know Your plan for our lives. Amen.
