I think studying the Bible is super important because it helps us know what God wants to share with us. Just like having a good friend requires talking and listening, we need to listen to God through His Word! It can be hard to find time to read the Bible, especially when there are so many fun things to do, but it doesn’t have to be boring. Like Lais and Maria, you can find a time that works best for you, whether it’s in the morning or at night. If I made a plan, I’d pick the time right after dinner to read a chapter. It’s like hanging out with God! 🕊️📖
The Importance of StudyFriendship involves two-way communication—both listening and talking. That’s also true of friendship with God. Reading and studying the Bible is the way we listen to what God has to say to us.—Psalm 1:2, 3.Granted, study may not be your favorite activity. Many youths would rather watch TV, play a game, or just hang out with friends. But if you want to cultivate friendship with God, there’s no shortcut. You’ll need to listen to him by studying his Word.Don’t worry, though. Bible study doesn’t have to be a chore. You can learn to enjoy it—even if you don’t consider yourself the studying type. The first thing you need to do is set aside time for Bible study. “I have a schedule,” says a girl named Lais. “I read one chapter of the Bible first thing each morning.” Maria, 15, has a different routine. “I read a little of the Bible each night before I go to sleep,” she says.To get started on your own study program, look at the box on page 292. Then, below, write down a time when you could spend just 30 minutes or so studying God’s Word.
