Someone was knocking at the door so Mary answered it. It was a lady, “Do you have a Bible?” she asked.
Grandma overheard and said, “Of course, go get it, Mary. It’s upstairs in the dresser drawer. Let the lady see that we have a Bible.”
When Mary gave Grandma the Bible she opened it. “Well, well,” she cried, “here are my glasses that I have been missing so long!”
Poor Grandma—she must not have read her Bible for a long time. Are you like Grandma? How often do you read your Bible?
Read your Bible, read it every day,
Read your Bible, also watch and pray;
Read your Bible, read it through and through,
And it will surprise you what the Lord can do.
