Psalm 119:11, Proverbs 4:20–21

Just as you would take your dog out of the house to go on a walk or to the vet, you need to take the Bible off the shelf. Carry, read, study, memorize, think about, and obey it.

Name 3 places you could take the Bible.

Psalm 19:8, 119:16

R

When they are happy, cats purr and guinea pigs wheek. As a pet brings joy to its owner, God’s Word can give you joy as it reminds you of His wonderful love. All Christians should spend time enjoying it.

Name a Bible verse that can give believers joy.

Philippians 4:9, Hebrews 4:12

U

People use horses to ride on and to do work. And the horses must work hard! Likewise, you should put the truth of God’s Word to work in your life. The Bible is not just to admire. Instead, its truth should be regularly used!

Circle ways that believers can use the Bible.

Proverbs 30:5, John 17:17

T

Some birds, like geese, mate for life. They never leave their partner’s side. God’s Word is like that. You can trust completely in it, because it will never fail.

Write an example of a Bible truth that is hard to understand.

Psalm 40:8, Colossians 3:16

H

Similar to how you feel when you hold a pet close to your heart, you should treasure God’s Word in your heart. Hold on to the truth of God’s Word, for it is precious and everlasting.

Name three things that believers treasure about the Bible.

Philippians 4:8-9
