Great for Kids

My husband got this Bible for my son, who is only eight months old right now, and I love it! It is an excellent Bible that keeps Christ at the center of every story. I love reading it to my son, and he loves looking at the beautiful pictures. The Jesus Storybook Bible tells the beautiful love story about God redeeming a people for Himself, through Christ- which is the heart of the Bible. I have not found many children's books that convey that message. It is also great because it uses child-friendly language and explains the truth without watering it down. This is something I would recommend for anyone to buy a younger child.

I have also used Read Aloud Bible Stories and Leading Little Ones to God in working with children. They are both excellent in content as well.

New Look

I want to thank my wonderful husband for making my blog look exactly the way I want it to look. He is the best! I am not good at most things dealing with technology, so I guess that is one of the reasons we are a perfect match.

All For Jesus

All For Jesus

By Mary D. James

All for Jesus! All for Jesus!

All my being's ransomed power;

All my thoughts and words and doings;

All my days and all my hours.

Let my hands perform His bidding;

Let my feet run in His ways;

Let mine eyes see Jesus only;

Let my lips speak forth His praise.

Worldlings prize their gems of beauty,

Cling to gilded toys of dust;

Boast of wealth and fame and pleasure -

Only Jesus will I trust.

Since mine eyes were fixed on Jesus,

I've lost sight of all beside,

So enchained my spirit's vision,

Looking at the crucified.

Oh what wonder! How amazing!

Jesus, glorious King of kings,

Deigns to call me His beloved,

Lets me rest beneath His wings.

Amen.
