My Bible

I have been reading this bible for 20 years! An old friend from college gave it to me. It used to be pink and falling apart but another friend had it rebound as a gift for me. I have memorized almost all of my scriptures that I know from it. I know the locations of many references and verses I have studied over the years and couldn't find the them in another bible without a struggle. You can tell it has been through a lot and is well loved. Last month I LOST it. I was hoping that I would find it in our move. I didn't. BUT today at church I walked past a cart and saw it just lying there lonely. WOO HOO! I picked it up and held it over my head and rejoiced. It was an outburst of joy....a sweet reunion! :)
