Stocking Up

Mary & I made a trip up to Eldora, IA today, to stock up on Bibles that we've been giving away around Marshalltown. Rosenkrans Book & Bible Outlet Store is a great little place for Bibles and other Christian books. I picked up a used set of J. Vernon McGee's commentaries a few years back, and Mary has been using them lately as she studies through Matthew. We get brand new, good quality, compact large print Bibles, and also some New Testaments for around $5 a piece, or less! I could not find any Spanish Reina Varlera Bibles, though - I got all he had the last time we were up, and he's still out of them.

Like we prayed on the drive back home, may God get these Holy Scriptures into the hands of people as we give them out, people who will read and understand the will of God, and come to saving faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. When people come to request a free Bible, I usually say, "Are you going to read this? It's not a good-luck charm or family heirloom. You need to read it, and heed it!" Amen. That is a good word to all of us.
