Diary of a Bible
(Author Unknown)
JANUARY:
A busy time for me. Most of the family decided to read me through this year. They kept me
busy for the first two weeks, but they have forgotten me now.
FEBRUARY:
Cleanup time. I was dusted yesterday and put in my place. My owner did use me for a few
minutes last week. He had been in an argument and was looking up some references to prove
he was right.
MARCH:
Had a busy day first of the month. My owner was elected president of the PTA and used me
to prepare a speech.
APRIL:
Grandpa visited us this month. He kept me on his lap for an hour reading Corinthians 1:13.
He seems to think more of me than do some people in my own household.
MAY:
I have a few green stains on my pages. Some spring flowers were pressed in my
pages.
JUNE:
I look like a scrapbook. They have stuffed me full of newspaper clippings -- one of the
girls got married.
JULY:
They put me in a suitcase today. I guess we are off on vacation. I wish I could stay home;
I know I'll be closed up in this thing for at least two weeks.
AUGUST:
Still in the suitcase.
SEPTEMBER:
Back home at last and in my old familiar place. I have a lot of company. Two women's
magazines and four comic books are stacked on top of me. I wish I could be read as much as
they are.
OCTOBER:
They read me a little bit today. One of them is very sick. Right now I am sitting in the
center of the coffee table. I think the Pastor is coming by for a visit.
NOVEMBER:
Back in my old place. Somebody asked today if I were a scrapbook.
DECEMBER:
The family is busy getting ready for the holidays. I guess I'll be covered up under
wrapping paper & packages again ... just as I am every Christmas.
God's Word says:
"And you shall love the LORD your God with
all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words, which I am
commanding you today, shall be on your heart; and you shall teach them diligently to your
sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and
when you lie down and when you rise up." Deuteronomy 6:5
