The touch of a button delivers instant information about nearly anything in the universe, including God’s Word.

There are books from renowned pastors, commentaries from martyrs, sermons, maps, video tours, photos, and devotions. You can read the Scriptures in their original language, hear them as an ebook, and get the Word in bite-size bits to enjoy with your coffee. The Bible is painted and sung, crafted and worn.

We can create a storehouse of books, calendars, songs, t-shirts, mugs, paintings and bumper stickers, but it won’t fully satisfy us. Nor will it satisfy God.

Our ears and eyes can be full of God’s Word and its marvelous power, but that isn’t enough. We must collect it and keep it.

God’s Word has to get farther than our eyes and ears, farther than our twenty minute attention spans. It has to get into our hands and feet. It has to move us to speak out and stand up, to whisper a prayer, to shout a praise, to dance with joy, to open our door, to schedule a Sabbath, to share our income, to change our plans.

Let God’s Word move you. Let it make you. Let it change you. Then you will be truly blessed.
