One of the secrets of a great relationship with God is to read what He’s written to you, and that's the Bible. It’s the world’s all-time best-selling book and has helped more people with their lives than any other book.
As 2 Timothy 3:16 says, “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives.” God breathed out His feelings onto paper through a variety of human authors for a combination of 66 "books" to help you see your life through His eyes.
It is so much more than a religious book. It’s the only book God ever wrote, and He wrote it for you. When you read His Word, you’re spending time with a person. Meet with Jesus through what He wrote to you.
But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don't forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.
Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God’s gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered.
And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God's Son does not have life.
When I am with those who are weak, I share their weakness, for I want to bring the weak to Christ. Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some.
