IT'S ALL YOU NEED

"Never let good books take the place of the Bible. Drink from the Well, not from the streams that flow from the Well." - Amy Carmichael

Andrew Jackson said, "That book, sir, is the rock on which our republic rests." Charles Dickens, the great literary icon added, "The N.T. is the very best book that was or ever will be known in the world." Another great personality George Washington posited, "It is impossible to righteously govern the world without God and the Bible." Yet Ronald Reagan had this to say, "Within the covers of one single book, the Bible, are all the answers to all the problems that face us today - if only we would read and believe."

John T. Spach, narrates in Reader's Digest. When a son left for his freshman year at Duke University, his parents gave him a Bible, assuring him it would be a great help. Later, as he began sending them letters asking for money, they would write back telling him to read his Bible, citing chapter and verse. He would reply that he was reading the Bible - but he still needed money. When he came home for a semester break, his parents told him they knew he had not been reading his Bible. How? They had tucked $10 and $20 bills by the verses they had cited in their letters.

Great personalities and icons have attested to the fact that EVERYTHING we'll ever need on earth, is WRAPPED up in the Word of God - literally. Ironically, like this student we suffer lack and need, in the midst of the abundant supply - material and spiritual - God has already provided for us in His Word. Take advantage of this provision by DAILY searching the Word for your needs. Drink from the well.

 

Let us pray: Father, thank you for your provision in Jesus name.
