Diary of a Bible

January
A busy time for me. Most of the family decided to read me thru this year. They have kept me busy for the past two weeks. Now they have forgotten.

February
Clean-up time. I was dusted yesterday and put in my place. My owner did use me a few minutes last week. He had been in an argument and was looking up some references.

March
I had a busy day the first of the month. My owner was appointed leader of something and used me. I got to go to church for the first time this year, Easter Sunday.

April
Grandpa visited us. He kept me on his lap reading 1st Corinthians for an hour (Chapter 13). He seems to think more of me than he did when he was younger

May
I have a few green stains on my pages. Had some early spring flowers pressed into me.

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

July
They put me in a suitcase today. I guess we are off on vacation. I wish I could stay at home because 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. Have a lot of company; two “True Stories” and four comic books are on top of me. My! I wish I could be read as much as they are.

October
They used me a little today. One of them is very sick. Right now I am all shined up and in the centre of the table. I think the preacher is coming.

November
Back to my old place. I was looked thru for some old papers today. One of the children picked me up and asked, “Is this a scrapbook?”

December
They’re getting ready for Christmas, so I’ll soon be covered with packages and wrapping paper.
