Thought of the Day August 21, 2017 The Word of God

By 9:22 AM

"Nothing would please us more than to see our beloved children form the habit of reading the Gospels - not merely from time to time, but every day." (St Pope Pius X) St Paul tells Timothy and us: "You have known the sacred Scriptures, the source of the wisdom which through faith in Jesus Christ leads to salvation. All Scripture is inspired of God and is useful for teaching--for reproof, correction, and training in holiness so that the man of God may be fully competent and equipped for every good work."(2 Tim 3:15-17) Reading and reflecting on the Word of God should be as part of our daily routine as is eating and sleeping. We read other materials for work and pleasure, for knowledge and information. But do we read the Word of God for our edification and sanctification? What would happen? We may "be fully competent and equipped for every good work."
