The Precious Book

June 22, 2012

Daily Encouragement For June 22:

The Precious Book

Though the cover is worn
And the pages are torn
And places bear traces of tears,
Yet more precious than gold
Is the Book worn and old,
That can shatter and scatter my fears.

When I prayerfully look
In the precious old Book,
As my eyes scan the pages I see,
any tokens of love
From the Father above,
Who is nearest and dearest to me.

This old Book is my guide,
'Tis a friend by my side,
It will lighten and brighten my way;
And each promise I find
Soothes and gladdens my mind
As I read it and heed it each day.

Oh, wonderful, wonder Word of the Lord,
True wisdom its pages unfold,
And though we may read it a thousand times o'er,
They never, no never grow old.

Each line hath a treasure, each treasure a pearl,
That all, if they will, may secure;
And we know that when time and the world pass away,
God's Word shall forever endure.

God's Word is like a deep, deep mine,
And jewels rich and rare
Are hidden in its mighty depths
For every searcher there.

given him a quarter too much change.

As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, 'you better give the 
quarter back. It would be wrong to keep it'. Then he thought, 'Oh, forget 
it, it's only a quarter. Who would worry about ...

A Death Brought Me To Repentance

Daily Encouragement For June 18:

A Death Brought Me To Repentance

My testimony may seem to unbelievers as very inhuman but the fact is, my
father's death brought about my repentance and it worked out for good. I
loved my father above anyone else. To be honest, he was an idol to me. I'm
not saying it's not good to love a parent but putting one above God or even
ones children is. 

My father wasn't a Christian but he was loving, generous and kind. He did 
have a temper and he also drank quite a bit. The...

The Rock

Daily Encouragement For June 14:

The Rock 

A little boy was spending his Saturday morning playing in his sandbox. He
had with him his box of cars and trucks, his plastic pail, and a shiny red
plastic shovel. In the process of creating roads and tunnels in the soft 
sand, he discovered a large rock in the middle of the sandbox.

The boy dug around the rock, managing to dislodge it from the dirt. With
a little bit of struggle, he pushed and nudged the rock across the sandbox
busying his feet. (He was a ...
