This was the motto of a Chinese Evangelist, Leland Wang and he lived by this motto for 44 years. He wouldn’t eat breakfast until he had read at least one chapter of the Bible to begin the day. I also like to keep to this motto. It’s such a good reminder to feed my spirit before I feed my body. It’s a good reminder to feed on God’s word before I check messages! It has been the habit of my life to get up early and immediately get into God’s word. It is one of the best habits off my life which rewards me the greatest blessings. Leland Wang also said that it was “not a law to bind me but a motto to remind me.”
Encourage your children and your young people to take up this motto too.
