The God who created all things, and who holds all things together, invites us to know Him, and He's given us a way to do that. We can know God through His Word. Not only do we have a book that we can read to know God, but God Himself came down in the form of one of us so that we could know Him. Jesus is the Word made flesh. Therefore, spending time reading and studying the word of God in order to better know the Word of God will help us to better follow the purpose for which God created us and all things: that we would glorify Him forever.
