Book of Treasure

How often when we read the Book, 
Do we forget to take a look? 
For Truth within the cover there, 
Or words of Wisdom, pure and fair. 

The Bible is God’s Word so pure, 
It is divine, rooted and sure. 
Trusting in others is absurd. 
The Book of Treasure is God’s Word. 

The key to unlock this Treasure: 
His Word in our hearts with pleasure. 
Searching for Wisdom so we find, 
Jewels so rare, His Word divine. 

The Bible is God’s Word so pure. 
It is divine, rooted and sure. 
Trusting in others is absurd. 
The Book of Treasure is God’s Word. 

So take a look within God’s Book, 
Digging for a much deeper look, 
Seeking the Lord with all your heart. 
His Word has treasure to impart. 

The Bible is God’s Word so pure. 
It is divine, rooted and sure. 
Trusting in others is absurd. 
The Book of Treasure is God’s Word.

Here is a poem I composed about Bible reading and studying.  It also applies to Scripture memory.  I pray that each of you may learn to love the Word of God greatly through our time with the Bible Bee.  The Bible is a Book full of treasures that God desires us to explore.  By reading and studying and memorizing His word we are able to know Him better.  This is my prayer for all of you, that you will gain treasure from His word abundantly.

The Resurrection Season

Bright, brilliant blossoms bud and bloom,

Amid the deepest, darkest gloom,

His tomb, so dark and cold and gray,

Like winter in a cold cocoon.

His tomb so dark and cold and gray,

Surreal silence on springtime day,

Our King sleeps still; hope lies slain,

By friend disowned, denied, betrayed.

Our King sleeps still; hope lies slain;

On Easter morn, no more constrained.

Arise! dark shadows shrink away.

The King forevermore shall reign!

Arise! dark shadows shrink away,

Bright, brilliant flowers join the lay,

“All praise to Christ, the Risen King”,

Proclaiming joy in springtime day.

“All praise to Christ, the Risen King”

Break forth in joyous music; Sing!

“Love once was slain, no more to die”

Death trampled; ‘lasting life He brings.

“Love once was slain, no more to die”

Love bursting forth; O hope, arise!

One day we’ll meet Him in the skies.

Redeemed are we by God Most High!

It is amazing to think about Christ's resurrection! It is not just something to remember on Easter. The resurrection is fundamental to our faith (1 Corinthians 15). It is not just something you celebrate once or twice a year. Daily we need to remember what Christ has done for us. Remember, He is risen!
