Being a good general store owner

"[Jesus] said, 'Then you see how every student well-trained in God's kingdom is like the owner of a general store who can put his hands on anything you need, old or new, exactly when you need it." (Matt 13:52, The Message translation)

How's your comfort level with your Bible, men? For any situation, can you go to God's Word and find appropriate guidance or strength? God will bring us new opportunities every day (see Eph 2:10), and our part is to be prepared.

Make it your ambition to wear out Bibles. Write in them. Create a legacy you can leave to your children. But get God's Word in your heart and mind.
