What’s something you do every single day without even thinking about it? Maybe it’s brushing your teeth, eating breakfast, or putting on your shoes. These are called habits—stuff you do so often that they become automatic!

Here’s an important question: Is reading the Bible one of your habits? Jesus said that people who follow Him should “abide” in His Word. That’s a fancy way of saying we should live in God’s Word. That means reading it, thinking about it, and letting it change how we act every single day!

Sometimes life gets super busy. There’s homework and practice and video games and hanging out with friends. It’s easy to say, “I’ll read my Bible tomorrow.” But then tomorrow comes, and you’re busy again! Before you know it, days or even weeks go by without spending time in God’s Word.

But the more you read the Bible, the more you’ll want to read it! It’s like getting to know your best friend. The more time you spend together, the closer you get. God’s Word is how He talks to us. When we skip it, we miss out on hearing from Him!

Take Action: Pick a time every day to read your Bible. Maybe right when you wake up, right before bed, or right after school. Set an alarm or ask a parent to remind you. Start with just five minutes! Read one chapter or even just a few verses. The important thing is to do it every day until it becomes a habit you can’t live without!
