Anyone who is over the age of 30 will remember that you used to have to stop along the roadways and put a dime or quarter into a pay phone in order to call home while you were traveling...
Well... those days are long gone.
Who would have ever imagined that we would be walking around with phones attached permanently to our hands or hips, carrying them in our purses, talking while we shop or eat or drive?! Wow. The advances of technology happen so quickly and then we cannot even fathom living without these items.
I came across this particular article in a sister church newsletter when I was substituting at our church office this last December. It was so good, and I felt like it was so relevant, I photocopied it and left it in the folder to use as filler when the next opportunity came. And it did. Just this past month in June.
I want to reprint it here for you, and I hope you will take a moment to consider the message.
What Would Happen??
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 get it if we forgot it?
What if we flipped through it several times a day?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn’t live without it?
What if we gave it to kids as gifts?
What if we used it as we traveled?
What if we used it in case of an emergency?
What if we upgraded it to get the latest version?
This is something to make you go… hmmm…
Where is my Bible? Oh, and one more thing.
Unlike our cell phone, we don’t ever have to worry
about our Bible being disconnected because
Jesus already paid the bill! Be Blessed!

I think I'm going to copy and pass that one along. It sure makes good food for thought.
