Fascination with Bibles! March 5, 2008

Since I’ve dedicated my life to Christ back in 1999, I’ve been fascinated with Bibles.  I have so many and constantly wanting more.  I have devotional bibles, studies bibles, even the Bible Experience Audio Cds (New Testament).  I always find one or two features on each that I feel like I can’t live without that would draw me closer to God.  For instance, last night, I opened my Quest Bible which really draws different topical/theological questions that I didn’t think about when I was reading the passages.  I enjoy this particular Bible but then my newest desire is to have the “True Identity Bible for Women”.  It presents so many topics and questions geared towards women that I find interesting and facisinating.  I’ve been thinking about getting that bible since I saw it the other night at Barnes and Noble.  Sichan won a gift card at work recently for Barnes so the desire is even stronger to get it, but I just bought a marriage Bible so that Sichan and I can do our devotions together.  So, what shall I do?  I already have a collection of 7+ bibles!!!!  I remember in a sermon that Daniel used the example of how some people have so many different kinds of Bibles but yet that person hasn’t read the whole Bible to its entirety.  I’m one of those people!  I want to read my Bible from start to finish but yet I keep finding a feature that I like in one Bible that the others don’t have.
