Do you use the Screentime feature on your phone or favorite social media app? It’s the feature that reveals how long you spend on your phone during the day and during the week. This has revealed a lot to me about my own personal use of my phone. Social media apps like Instagram and Snapchat take up nearly two hours of my day. But the one that takes the most time is TikTok! I get so caught up in scrolling and scrolling I can spend five to six hours on it!
Now, what does this have to do with Psalm 119:11? This verse relates to how you read your Bible. How can you hide God’s Word in your heart if you do not read it? It is so easy to spend hours on our phones, but it’s tough sometimes to prioritize reading the Bible. But, by getting to know the Bible, we can use the wisdom and words in it to stay focused on living our lives the way God says is best!
My challenge for you is to create your own way of keeping up with reading your Bible on a regular basis, just like how our phones keep up with how often we use them. You can keep it on a sticky note or ask a friend to do a Bible reading plan with you (for some accountability). It is so important to be reading Scripture as a regular part of building your faith every day!
