In The Living Insights Bible, Chuck Swindoll says, "I am more convinced than ever that life's major pursuit is not knowing self . . . but knowing God. Today make it your aim. Consciously think, 'Lord, use these few quiet moments to enhance my knowledge of You. Take first place in my heart. Reveal Yourself to me."
