A BIBLES DIARY

My wife and I have a thrift store and many people bring their Bibles in to get rid of them.  What if one of those bibles had kept a diary of its life what might it be like.

January: Dear diary it has been a busy time for me.  Several in the family have decided to read me through this year.  They have kept me busy for the past couple weeks. But I have now been put away.

February: Dear diary Clean up time. I was dusted yesterday and put in my place.  My owner did use me a few minutes last week.  He had been in an argument and was looking for a verse couldn't find it and gave up.

March:  Dear diary I had a busy day this month.  My owner was putin charge of something and had to take me to church.  I was very excited it was the first time I got to go to church this year. It was Easter Sunday.

April:  Dear diary grandpa visited.  He held me for over an hour reading First Corinthians thirteen.  He thinks a lot more of me then he did when he was younger.

May: Dear diary I have some disgusting green stains I was used to press some flowers in.

June: Dear diary I feel like a scrapbook instead of a Bible one of the girls got married so they stuffed me full of pictures.

July:  Dear diary I am depressed they are taking me with them on vacation if its like last year I will spend the entire trip in the suitcase under wet towels and dirty socks.

August: Dear diary we got home from vacation everything is unpacked but I am still in the suitcase.

September: Dear diary back in my place again.  Have company now 4 comic books a readers digest and a dirty glass are sitting on me.  I just wish I got the attention they did.

October:  Dear diary I got shined up today one of the relatives is very sick and the preacher will be coming over.

November: Dear diary back in my old place, i was looked through today someone needed some old papers.  One of the kids asked if I was a scrapbook everyone just laughed.

December:  Dear diary everyone's getting ready for Christmas, I don't expect much attention this month.

The LORD keeps a diary of your life will you be honored or shamed when it is read for all to hear.
