We need to pursue it

Teach me how to live, O LORD. Lead me along the right path. (Psalm 27:11 NLT)

 A key element in letting God guide us, in finding His leading, and following Him is to be grounded in His Word, by seeking to know and understand the truth of His Word.
 The Bible is God revealing Himself to humankind. It’s through understanding the Word of God that we discover God’s plan for us.
 After all, it’s the book that reveals what God has told us about Himself. It contains His words to us, His answers to the life we live as well as information regarding the life to come.
 It teaches us how to interact with Him, how to become more like Him. And above all, it tells us how to enter into a relationship with Him, to receive Him into our life, to become connected with Him.
 The next step is living that truth in our daily lives, to the best of our ability, by God’s grace. In order to live that truth, we need to understand that truth. To understand it, we need to pursue it, which means to work at it, to spend some time at it. —P. Amsterdam [1]

 After more than 60 years of almost daily reading of the Bible, I never fail to find it always new and marvellously in tune with the changing needs of every day. —Cecil B. DeMille
