Day 5: A Scripture that changes your view on life.
I haven't always been so keen on Bible study.
There were those years in high school when I went to church and youth group things because I knew it was the right things to do. (Oh, and also because I could hang out with my boyfriend there....)
I'm not sure when it hit me...but at some point I realized, "If I want to get to heaven, I've really got to study this thing." (AKA, the Bible.)
It might've been one of Martin's sermons. It might've been a Bible class at FHU. It could've been my wonderful Christian friends who knew way more about the Bible than me.
I dunno.
But I now know that in order to change my life for the good...in order to be right in the sight of God...I've got to study the Bible.
It really is the Life Book.
It is the standard by which I should live by. I find it amazing that as old as the Bible is, it still applies to today. I mean, how many books can do that? Only one, I think.
So I'm sure that I could pick a verse or so that changes my view on life. But to be completely honest, the whole Bible has changed my view on life. It's given me support in hard times, rules to live by, encouragement, hope for the future.
It's changed my life.
