"An open Bible in the morning is my lifeline for the day." ~ ray mileur

Some people think of the Bible as a nice addition to their day — a devotional extra, something to squeeze in if time allows.

I’ve learned it’s more than that.

It’s my lifeline.

Before the phone rings. Before the news starts talking. Before the weight of responsibilities settles on my shoulders, I need something solid under my feet. If I don’t start my morning anchored in God’s Word, the day has a way of pushing me around. My mood follows the headlines. My thoughts chase worries. My peace depends on circumstances.

That’s no way to live.

But when I open my Bible first thing, something steadies inside me. My heart slows down. My perspective clears. I’m reminded who God is — and who I belong to.

Scripture says, “Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.” Faith doesn’t magically appear. It grows when we consistently hear God’s truth. Day by day. Verse by verse.

That’s why time in the Word matters so much. It feeds faith. It strengthens resolve. It guards our minds before the world has a chance to fill them with noise.

I’ve found that an open Bible in the morning doesn’t just change how I start the day — it changes how I walk through it.

Because when God speaks first, everything else falls into its proper place.
