Live in the Word

These words that I am giving you today are to be in your heart.  Repeat them to your children. Talk about them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
Deuteronomy 6:6‭-‬7 HCSB

This word challenges me. I have not, of late, done this. Yes i speak scripture when needed but not done this instructionally. When my children were small I did. Now i am a Nan i dont, except when thr need arises. When we know we have a role we are more inclined to do so. However, the new Trstament exhorts us to sing Psalms, hymns and spiritual songs to build one another up, to live in the word.

As a race the Jews have this practice down well, at least those who walk in their beliefs do. How can the Christian glean from this? In the era u was saved we sang scripture, it was the scripture in song generation. For this I am grateful.

These words are to be in our hearts. These words cleanse and make us whole. These words are woth meditating on. Repeating sin, which we are nore inclined to, gossip that is. Why not goodness, grace and mercy. Why not be a vessel of good? Why not be filled with God's goodness, His mercy and grace?
