Encouragement to read the BIble

Here's some encouragement to commit to reading the Bible on a regular basis:

In the Scriptures God daily comes to his people, not from afar but nearby. In it he reveals himself, from day to day, to believers in the fullness of his truth and grace. Through it he works his miracles of compassion and faithfulness. Scripture is the ongoing rapport between heaven and earth, between Christ and his church, between God and his children. It does not just tie us to the past; it binds us to the living Lord in the heavens. It is the living voice of God

(Herman Bavinck - Prologema, edited by John Bolt, translated by John Vriend, vol 1 Reformed Dogmatics (Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2003) p385)
