Motivational

After reading SAFELY HOME by Randy Alcorn (a WONDERFUL book), I felt strongly that I wanted to do something special. So I bought some pretty journals for myself and my two oldest daughters. We are writing all of Psalms in our journals, word for word. When we are finished with Psalms we will probably write one of the Gospels, and so on.
I was motivated to do this by the underground church in China in this story, and their passion and love for the Bible. They would copy the Bible and then pass on the original so that someone else could copy it. Of course, being caught with a Bible meant prison, torture and may be death.
So, I want to be more passionately in love with His Word, and also pray this for my children; and this practice of copying the Bible I think will plant a seed. By Gods grace, Book by Book, I pray we will continue this practice for our lives.
