A true story about a man who repeatedly rejected the gift of a Bible. Hoping to get rid of a Bible, Antonio buries it in a brick wall. In God's most astonishing way, the same Bible returns to him, at a time when he is most inclined to listen to the Word of God. A story that has taught many to revere and value the privilege of having the Word of God.
Â
Here is a true story for children (and others) that encourages three things:Â
Â
First, the Bible, being the Word of God, converts people. How we should let it dwell richly in us! Much reading of all its pages, much reflection on its central message, which is Jesus Christ, the Savior, much contemplation of God as such to know Jesus Christ well, for He is God.
Â
Second, since the Bible, the Word of God, converts people, how we should do everything possible to make more people know and believe it!
Â
Third, the God who reveals Himself in the Bible is the God who works all things according to His will. He carries out His purposes often in unexpected but wonderful ways. Let us trust in Him to save His people in His own time and in His own way. Our labor in the Lord is not in vain.Â
