Read, Mark, Learn, and Inwardly Digest

Some five hundred years ago, Thomas Cranmer prayed that we might hear the Scriptures, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them. What he meant is that he wanted them to become a part of us, not just something we know, but something that informs how we live. When we read the Bible it changes us, helps us to know God’s heart. In good times and in bad, God’s Word is speaking into your life. Listen closely.
