Wasted Day

I recently came across this quote by John MacArthur while doing his Bible study on 1 Peter. It definitely convicts me about the way I live my life and the way I often prioritize. I can easily say that God is my number one priority, then Ryan, then family/friends/Wally :), etc., but is that a reflection of how I truly live?

"A believer should count it a wasted day when he does not learn something new from or is not more deeply enriched by the truth of God's Word..." MacArthur goes on to say, "The church cannot operate on truth it is not taught; believers cannot function on principles they have not learned. The most noble are still those who search the Scriptures daily (Acts 17:11)."

How many days have I wasted, and is today going to be one of them?

I'm so proud of you, Kelli! It's humbling and joyous to witness the Lord's work in your life. He cares for you as His daughter. You are so very special to Him and me and so many others. That I know you as my bride is too precious for me to fully appreciate. As the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you.
