DIARY OF THE BIBLE

January: A busy time for me. Most of the family decided to read me through this year. They kept me busy for the first two weeks. I’m now forgotten.

February: My owner used me for a few minutes last week. He had an argument and was checking references.

March: Grandpa visited us. He kept me on his lap for an hour, reading 1 Corinthians 13.

April: I had a busy day. My owner was appointed a leader of something and used me. I got to go to church the first time this year … Easter Sunday.

May: I have a few grass stains on my pages. Had some early spring flowers pressed in me.

June: I look like a scrapbook. They have stuffed me full of clippings. One of the girls got married.

July: They put me in a suitcase today. I guess we’re off on a vacation. I wish I could stay at home, as I will have to stay in this thing for a month.

August: Still in the suitcase.

September: Back home again, and in my old place. I have lots of company. Two ‘People Magazines’ and four ‘Video Games’ are on top of me. I wish I could be used as much as they are.

October: They used me a little today. One of them is sick. Right now I’m all shined up and in the center of the table … I think the preacher is coming.

November: Back in my old place.

December: They are getting ready for Christmas. I’ll be covered under wrapping papers and packages.
