The Book

Perhaps you remember the librarian - media specialist, she's now called - from your school days. Because I love books, it must have been glorious to spend each day in a room full of them! Emma Thompson said, "Books ... turn up in your life when you most need them." Is there ever a moment in our lives when we don't need The Book of all books - the Bible? Absolutely not! It's God says this about His Word: Matthew 4:4 "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." ... Matthew 24:35 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away." ... Isaiah 40:8 "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever." ... Proverbs 30:5 "Every word of God proves true." ... Psalm 119:160 "The sum of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous rules endures forever." If we could possess only one book, it must be God's Word. From cradle to the grave, "The B-I-B-L-E, yes, that's the Book for me - I stand alone on the Word of God - The B-I-B-L-E."  God's Holy Word ... for me and for you, it is forevermore ... the Book.
