Psalm 119:31 I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.
Sticking with It
We live in a world of fads and crazes. Every other day it seems there is something new that everybody is doing. We chase after the latest thing and when we catch it, it is yesterday's news.
Just think about the books we read. For example, there was the "Chicken Soup" series. Self-improvement books just keep coming, and we keep buying. Many of them are full of good information and timely advice. But they all soon find themselves gathering dust on bookshelves while we rush out to purchase the latest book everyone is reading.
I am not decrying the reading of such books. I am simply making this statement: THANK GOD FOR THE BIBLE! It is NEVER outdated. It is ALWAYS timely. It is as fresh when you are seventy- six as it was when you were fifteen. It is the book of the ages. In it is life. Abundant life. Eternal life.
Didn't anyone ever advise you to find something and stick with it? Pick up that copy of God's Word laying beside you right now. Stick with it. It will never lead you astray. It will never leave you cold. It will never go out of style. In a world of change, God's Word is constant. Count on it.
