Ever wish that life had an owners manual? Well, it does! It's called the Bible. God's Word is the Christian's manual for a happy and productive life, but only if it's used properly. Take the Bible off your shelf and read it everyday! Memorize important Scriptures and bring them to mind when trouble or temptation strikes. God's Word can bring comfort and strength when you need them most.
Colossians 3:16 - Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
