Even though big, the Christian bible version I chose was pretty easy to read and gave me such a strength and courage like I have never felt before. At first, I even felt bad because I didn't buy one earlier, so I immediately bought two more pieces for both my mother and sister. And this came like the perfect birthday present, as they are born on the same date (I know it's strange (chuckles)).
Now, if someone asks me, why do you read the bible, my answer would be - “Because I feel safer and closer to God. I feel like He is all the time with me in every possible situation.”
Here's one great explanation that I read in the bible:
“Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth.”
- It will revive you and bring joy into your life;
- It will give you hope and encourage you;
- It will make you strong no matter what happens;
- It will show you what is wrong in your life and will help you correct it;
- It will keep you from stumbling;
- It will keep you from sinning;
- It will teach you to forgive others, love them, and forget about any bitterness you may have.
