FP 36 The Bible

Centerpiece of the Home

What is a centerpiece? According to the online dictionary it is:

1. an ornamental object used in a central position, esp. on the center of a dining-room table.2. the central or outstanding point or feature.So what is the centerpiece that is on display in you so that others recognize it as the central or outstanding point or feature of your life?

Nothing, absolutely nothing will impact your home, your personal life, and your relationships like God's word. That's why we're constantly challenging you to read it, study it, memorize it, meditate on it, and get it into your daily routine of life.

Now that sounds a little suspect doesn't it? Make the Bible a part of your "daily routine"? Indeed! This is the fact you need to grasp today. Until your love for God and your time to meet with Him on a daily basis is so much a part of your life that it is routine, it will be sporadic at best and the outcome will be dismal. Christ will never feel at home in your heart, and your roots will not "grow down into God's love and keep you strong." (Ephesians 3:17)

So get started today and let God's word become the centerpiece in your home. Remember, whatever you set up as most precious will be that thing that others notice as being first and of utmost importance in your life. What is your centerpiece? More to come!

Until Tomorrow,

Pastor Steve
