National Library Week

 

our sweet Bell and our Little Free Library

"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

This week is National Library Week.  Do you know the title of the best-selling book of all time with an estimated 5 billion (yes, with a "b") copies sold and distributed?

The best-selling book of all time is a brilliant masterpiece and the Author is still alive today!  The title? The Holy Bible. The Author? The Lord God Almighty.

Author Sally Lloyd-Jones in The Jesus Storybook Bible wrote: "The Bible isn't a book of rules, or a book of heroes. the Bible is most of all a Story . . . It's love story about a brave Prince who leaves His palace, His throne — everything — to rescue the one He loves . . . It takes the whole Bible to tell this Story. And at the center of the Story, there is a baby. Every Story in the Bile whispers His name."

JESUS.

King David wrote: "How sweet are Your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth." (Psalm 119:103)

The prophet Isaiah wrote: "The grass withers and the flowers fade away, but the word of God endures forever!" (Isaiah 40:8)

Beloved, if reading the greatest book ever written, God's Holy Bile, is part of your daily life, I applaud you and may it remain so for all your days under the sun. If God's word sits neglected, I encourage you with all my heart to pick up your Bible, dust it off, and read the powerful, life-giving words of God. If you don't have a Bible, please contact me. I'd be honored to send you a Bible! 

Now, go get your Bible and have a great day with Jesus!
