Whatever keeps me from my Bible is my
enemy, However harmless it may appear to be.
Whatever engages my attention when I should be
meditating on God and things eternal does injury to my
soul.

Let the cares of life crowd out the Scriptures from my
mind and I have suffered loss where I can least afford it.
Let me accept anything else instead of the Scriptures
and I have been cheated and robbed to my eternal
confusion.

We have our New Testament regimental orders upon the
subject. I would take it for granted that everyone who
becomes a Christian would undertake this practice. It is
enjoined upon us by Our Lord; and since they are his
commands, I believe in following them.

Lewis

It is always just possible that Jesus Christ meant what
he said when He told us to seek the secret place and to
close the door.

Lewis

“.”
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider
myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one
thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and
straining toward what is ahead, I press on
toward the goal to win the prize for which
God has called me heavenward in Christ
Jesus.
Phil 3:13-14
