Researchers say that time is an illusion. Maybe that’s so, but it doesn’t stop us from obsessing over it anyway. We vow to make time, find time, save time. No matter what we do, we still lose it. Finding the time to do anything is a challenge, and that includes Bible study. A popular evangelist once said that we shouldn’t let a hurried lifestyle disturb our relationship of abiding in Him. So what is a hurried person to do? The answer is to make an effort, set a goal. Try reading a chapter of Proverbs and five psalms each day for a month. Or maybe read the five major prophets or the twelve minor prophets in the Old Testament. Or meditate on the life of Christ in the gospels, even for a few minutes every day or before bedtime. Try investigating scriptural teaching on a subject that is important to you, like finances or parenting. Just start somewhere.
