The #1 Book!
As a very young child, I can still see my brothers and me sitting on the sofa, and my Mother reading stories from the “Bible” to us. What was mesmerizing when she was reading to us, “Mom” changed her voice, I could see who she was talking about, and got so involved listening, wanted the reading to continue “forever”!
The story about “Shadrach”, “Meshach and Abednego” being thrown into the “Furnace of Fire”, and the “King” and others looking for the men to burn up in the fire – see an “Angel of God” and the three men walking around in that furnace. The “King” calls them to come out, because their “God ” proves to be the “True God”!
The other story we enjoyed was of “Daniel”, who was thrown into the “Lions’ Den”, just because someone reported “Daniel” praying to the “One True God”, instead of praying to the “King’s” idols. Over these many years of living, these stories and so many others have become more clear with my own daily reading the “Word”!
I feel we will ultimately learn “God’s” will to live our lives, following His messages, including “Love your neighbor as yourself” and “Follow the Golden Rule!”
