Hi and Happy 1st Monday in December, and Day 2 of Advent. Are you following an Advent calendar this year? If not, be sure to check out Pinterest for all sorts of Advent Calendar ideas.
Well, here we are in Lesson 3 of our bible study and y’all, this has to be a lesson that RADICALLY impacted my life as I was “walking it out” with the Lord. As I was reading about His Word and about Jesus, I began to see even more clearly the joy we have in loving our bibles! And just what that means in our life.

Psalm 119:167 – I obey your statutes, for I love them greatly.
John 14:23 – Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.

After you watch this video, then you will understand why I selected that particular featured image for this post — of the little child holding his bible 🙂
Here is what Beth Moore had on her Instagram that I mentioned in the video —
