BibleGateway, an online Bible resource, looked at the viewing habits of some of their 8 million monthly visitors. They found that John 3:16 was the most-searched-for verse in 2010.
I dont think its surprising that it would be number one on the list. It tells us that God loved us so much that He sent His Son to rescue us from our sin and give us everlasting life. Number 10 on the list is Jesus commission to His followers to spread that good news: Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations (Matt. 28:19). Also in the top 10 are Jeremiah 29:11 and Romans 8:28 about Gods good plans and purposes for His people.
The Scriptures are filled with truths to search out and share. In Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible, the psalmist shared his thoughts about the Word and his desire to search it and be taught by God. He said, Oh, how I love Your law! (v.97). Our Bible reading for today shows some of the psalmists reasons for loving it: It gives him wisdom and understanding, it restrains his feet from evil, and it is sweet. Therefore, its his meditation all the day.
Lets keep taking the time to read the Bible. The more we search the Word, the more well grow in our love for it and its Author (v.97).
