At the heart of this question, I would say, is what you believe about God. If you do believe in God, and that he is everlasting, omnipotent, omniscience, and is the end-all, be-all authority of the universe and everything in and out of it, then past, current, or future social norms should never be used as any kind of measuring stick. Nothing of man or of the world should be the measuring stick. It is only His word and His opinion that ultimately matters, no matter how the current social climate may shift or change. And frankly, from taking a look around, while technology has advanced, mankind really hasn't. The same issues dealt with in the Bible thousands of years ago are still the same issues at the core of our world today. Clearly mankind hasn't figured things out for themselves. 2 Timothy 3:16 ESV -- All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, Matthew 24:35 ESV -- Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away Thank you for your inquiry, and God bless!

Hello, and welcome! It does sound a little New Age, as RustyAngeL said, but from your description, it sounds like your heart is in the right place. The Bible tells us that it is through Jesus alone that we are saved... John 14:6 ESV -- Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. ...so I would say you should just ask yourself; why am I doing this? If it is because you seek salvation through ritual, you would be in the wrong. But if you simply use it as a daily reminder of His word and sacrifice for you, to focus your mind and heart on Him, then I don't believe there to be anything Biblically wrong with it. And I would also echo Rusty's suggestion to get into that Bible on a daily basis; there's nothing better for growing your knowledge of right and wrong and finding out what God actually thinks of what you're doing. God bless! 2 Timothy 3:16-17 ESV -- All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
