The Book

Posted on by Marla

Through the pages of a worn out book
I long to take just one more look
Faded cover, edges frayed
Tears stain the words, from where I’ve prayed…
Still, all its value I hold most dear
These stories inspired by God, who makes all things clear
Mysteries and secrets hidden from those who won’t draw near…
I read it day and night
To the one whose heart is true
Spirit, will reveal God’s love to you…
The author writes…
I am the light…
I do not change
I am always the same…
Men of old wrote the book you hold…
But my words cannot be bought or sold
Living and breathing these words you read…
Life I’ve planted in a tiny seed…
Grand oaks, and cypress, are glorious trees…
They are living inside of thee…
They spread their branches and bear much fruit
I am the way, the life, and the truth…
Open the book and read…

Jeremiah 30:2 The Message (MSG) Don’t Despair, Israel This is the Message Jeremiah received from God: “God’s Message, the God of Israel: ‘Write everything I tell you in a book.
Habakkuk 2:1-4 New King James Version (NKJV) I will stand my watch and set myself on the rampart, and watch to see what He will say to me, and what I will answer when I am corrected.
The Just Live by Faith Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.
