Daily Bites

A young boy once walked past a long line of waiting dignitaries and past the guards stationed to protect Abraham Lincoln. Without even knocking, he opened the door and walked into the President's White House office. Those in line angrly protested to the guards that they had been waiting their proper turn and the boy was out of line. "No he's not," came the reply, "His last name is Lincoln and he has gone in to see his father." Todd Lincoln had a special relationship with the right person and that made all the difference!

The most important thing about Christianity is developing a friendship with Jesus (get to know Him!). This is done by spending time each day with Him reading the Bible, meditating on what He is saying to you through it, and talking to Him through prayer. Below you will find one way to do this along with some suggested passages of Scripture to use. You may find it more meaningful if you write your thoughts in a journal.

  • Begin each session with prayer--maybe something like this: "Lord, help me to come to know you better as we spend time together..."

  • Read the passage--several times noticing as many details as you can.

  • Imagine the setting--put yourself in the picture. Try to imagine the sounds, smells, sensations.

  • Summarize the passage--in your own words.

  • Apply the passage--what message is God giving you?

  • Meditate and pray--meditate on how this passage makes Jesus more real. Talk to Him about the passage and about using the information you have learned.
