Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.

How much time does it take to read from Genesis to Revelation? If you would read the Bible at standard pulpit speed (slow enough to be heard and understood) the reading time would be seventy-one hours. If you would break that down into minutes and divide it into 365 days you could read the entire Bible, cover to cover, in only twelve minutes a day. Is this really too much time to spend reading about God?

A normal person spends at least 30 minutes three times a day consuming physical food to sustain his life. That does not even count the snacks we take in during each week. The more important thing is what would happen if we spent even half of that amount feeding the spirit instead of the flesh?

Jesus reminded us at a time when He was tempted by satan,

“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."
Matthew 4:4

The writer of Psalm 119:11 gives us the good advice of,

“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.”

Have you got twelve minutes a day for desert?
