The Greatest Book of All Times

If I will ask someone what is his/her favorite book. I know that I will always get an answer. We all love to read. During my spare time, the moment that I enjoy doing the most, aside from blogging is reading a good book. Which do you prefer?, Fiction or Non-Fiction, different story genres, from historical romance, classical tale, contemporary, sci-fi, drama, thriller name it, for sure everyone is excited to read!

Can you answer my next question? What lone book has succeeded over the next generation? Stories passed on and treasured until now?  Inspired countless people, changed lives, has all the ingredients you want in a story to make you want to read more (adventure, drama, love story, action etc.). A guidebook for the do’s and don’t in this life and for sure you’ll live a life that’s A ok! So you see it is not an ordinary book.

Ready for the answer?, The answer is ------ the BIBLE! Yes, you are correct if the BIBLE is the book that you have in mind then you’re on the right track!

Isn’t it great, the one book that has everything for you. Just like the tagline of a famous shopping mall here, this book’s got it all for you! It is truly a wonderful book, from our Almighty Father, He is truly amazing and so is His book! A book that is inspired by Him. The bible is GOD’s love letter to us. We have the bible to remind us of GOD’s great love for us. It is our map here on earth. We should know the bible by heart so that we will never lose our way to our Almighty Father. Like what I’ve mentioned before it is our handbook and guide book for living an effective life here on earth. We have a lot of popular contemporary books now, a lot of “how to’s and books for the dummies.” We should not look elsewhere, for most people have overlooked and tried reading other self-help books, when they’re not aware that the book that they should learn and read by heart is just around their house. I remember, one fellow believer told us that you’ll know the owner of a bible if he/she’s truly reading it. The more worn-out your bible is the better! I really felt ashamed before because it was just recently when I started reading the bible. In our bible study in the office, I really felt like an ‘alien’ before because most of my Christian officemates are all well-versed and knowledgeable with the bible. I really have no idea about the other old testament books, the most familiar with me are Genesis and Exodus and that’s it! With regards to the New Testament, I am very familiar with the 4 gospels since, it is very a familiar reading in Catholic mass. So don’t let what happened to me happen to you. Don’t just display the bible, read it for yourself and share the good news with you loved ones!

It’s never too late for you to start reading the bible. Remember, it’s better late than never! Also, I will never forget this saying, that “Ignorance of the bible, is ignorance of Christ Jesus.” It’s true, isn’t it? For how can you say you are a follower of Christ if you don’t know His words. Like our body needs food, so is our spirit – the word of GOD is its food.

Thy Word (MV)

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path

When I feel afraid
And think I've lost my way
Still, You're there right beside me

Nothing will I fear
As long as You are near
Please be near me to the end

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path

I will not forget
Your love for me and yet
My heart forever is wandering

Jesus be my guide
And hold me to Your side
And I will love You to the end
To the end

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path

You're the light unto my path
