I don't know who composed it, but here in reverse order are the top ten indications that you may not be reading your Bible enough.
10. The preacher announces the sermon is from Galatians, and you check the table of contents.
9. You think Abraham, Isaac & Jacob may have had a few hit songs during the 60's.
8. You open to the Gospel of Luke and a WWII savings bond falls out.
7. Your favorite Old Testament patriarch is Hercules.
6. Your favorite Bible verse is "Cleanliness is next to godliness." (No matter how often your mother used that one on you as a child to get you to bathe, it's not in the Bible.)
5. You become frustrated because Charlton Heston isn't listed in either the concordance or the table of contents.
4. Catching the kids reading the Song of Solomon, you demand, "Who gave you this stuff?"
3. You think the Minor Prophets worked in the quarries.
2. You keep falling for it every time when the preacher tells you to turn to First Condominiums.
1. The kids keep asking too many questions about your usual bed time story: "Jonah the Shepherd Boy and His Ark of Many Colors."
Well, how'd you do with that? Any of these sound familiar? Regardless, Bible reading should be a daily activity for each of us. The psalmist said, "Oh how love I thy law! It is my mediation all the day." - (Ps. 119:97). How about it? Have you read your Bible today?
