But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: (Romans 10:8 NIV)

You have to read it to know what it says. "Obamacare" is the law of the land. It was voted on and enacted. But, very few even know what it says. Even our leaders didn't read it. We can't rely on media, elected officials, or word of mouth to tell us about it. We need to read it for ourselves. We are lazy and choose to just let someone else tell us about it. "Just tell me what I have to do!" 

You can go through your life people telling you what to believe about the Bible and Christ. But, it's not going to be near your heart or mouth. You can't rely on your pastor, your parents, or others. You have to read it, dig into it's verses and chapters. The Bible is a treasure for us given by the creator of the universe. Every word should be cherished, reflected on, buried in your heart, and demonstrated with your life. Start now! Get a plan to read it 15 minutes every day. Study it, journal about it, meditate on it! "The word is near you,......"
