Fit Bit (Garbage in?)
When I entered the gym today, I saw a quote posted, “Life is not formed by
good art, it is formed by bad television.”

York Daily News
Children
aged 2-11 watch over 24 hours of TV per week, while adults aged 35-49 watch
more than 33 hours, according to data from Nielsen that suggests TV time
increases the older we get. The average American watches more than five hours
of live television every day.
April
4,2013 Religious News Service
More
than half of Americans think the Bible has too little influence on a culture
they see in moral decline, yet only one in five Americans read the Bible on a
regular basis, according to a new survey.
More
than three-quarters of Americans (77 percent) think the nation’s morality is
headed downhill, according to a new survey
from American Bible Society.
The
survey showed the Bible is still firmly rooted in American soil: 88 percent of
respondents said they own a Bible, 80 percent think the Bible is sacred, 61
percent wish they read the Bible more, and the average household has 4.4
Bibles.
James 1:5 “If
any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask it of God, who gives generously to all
without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”
My people are destroyed from
lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as
my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore
your children.
In order for me to stay strong
in God’s word, I try to read the Bible daily, listen to Christian radio,
fellowship with other Christians and attend my home church services
regularly. I fall short on the entire
above, but if I keep on keeping on, it helps me have my head knowledge on God. I
have noticed where my head knowledge is my heart follows.
Bottom line: I stay strong,
through the powerful gift of Jesus. I remember
to keep Him first by intentionally feeding myself His word.
I hope this message inspires you
to turn off the TV and pick up the Bible!!
Be fit and be blessed,
Kimberly
