Should people today take time to Meditate?

Perhaps the most widely read book in the Bible (Psalm), these songs and poems lead us to ask why someone so big (God) would care about things so small (us).




Reading Psalm 1:2 made me pose this question - (I already knew the answer but some of the greatest questions asked are the ones we know the answer to)


Should people today take time to meditate?
With so many message "inputs" competing for our attention, now is the best time in history to meditate on God's Word. No previous generation has ever been so media rich and meditation poor. Who can hear God through the roar of cellular phones, television comedies, Web sites, and special-effects motion pictures? Most people never think about God during the day, much less meditate on His Word.
Granted, meditating on God's Word means less time for sales and
fewer billable hours. In a culture that trades time for money, meditation
carries a cost. Can we afford it? People today who take time to meditate
are choosing spiritual wealth as the first priority. Who can afford not to?
