I can easily convince myself that I have no time to study scripture. But the truth remains: I do what I choose to do; I neglect what I choose to neglect. How often is there no time for reading scriptures when there is ample time for sitting before the glassy face of the electronic idol? If my children do not know the Ten Commandments or the Beatitudes of Christ, it is because I have chosen not to teach them. If they do not love the word of God, it is because I have not shown this love.
