Number One

            When I had finished reading another of my favorite Bible verses, I realized that I have many favorite verses. I smiled as it reminded me of my grandson, Jonathan, as he opens his birthday presents. With each new gift, he exclaims, “Oh, my FAVORITE; it’s my FAVORITE!”

            Whenever I read God’s word, no matter how many times I’ve read the verse, there seems to be a new or renewed lesson learned. That’s the way God’s word surprises us. Each verse becomes my favorite at the time I need it most, just like Jonathan’s birthday presents.
