Time for some quotes

I’m in the mood for blogging some of my quote collection, so hold onto your hats you are in for a ride of a lifetime!!!!

Here is the first-

bible reading

Some seem to expect the Word of God to hit them like a jolt of adrenaline each time they read or study it. Although the jolt may hit us periodically, the benefits of the Word of God act more like vitamins. People who regularly take vitamins do so because of their long-term benefits, not because every time they swallow one of the pills, they feel new strength surging through their bodies. They have developed a habit of consistently taking vitamins because they have been told that, in the long haul, vitamin supplements are going to have a beneficial effect on their physical health, resistance to disease and, general well-being.

The same is true of reading the Bible. At times it will have a sudden and intense impact on us. However, the real value lies in the cumulative effects that long-term exposure to God’s Word will bring to our lives. Green, Michael P., Illustrations for Biblical Preaching, 1989

This is so true. Ongoing exposure to God’s truth even tho at times you won’t understand it will DO YOU GOOD!
