Hope everyone’s fine and really getting into the spirit of Lent as we have entered the last week. I was thinking about the sadness of Lent and how it can really put us down, especially in the last week as we truly remember why Jesus died for us. Some of us may want to be close to God physically at this point as we are when a loved one is dying.

Basically, what I’m trying to put through is this. Personally, over the years, I’ve had those moments in my life were I’ve felt alone and just needed to be held and once something someone had told me just rang a bell. You see, Jesus is in each and every one of our Bibles. It’s God’s biography and there is a piece of Him in every one of them. So when we touch our Bibles, evidentally, we are touching God.

After I rememberd this, everytime I felt alone I would just hold my Bible tightly, close my eyes and be still. The protection of God just falls on you when you just let go and let God work and it is truly an amazing feeling. Recently, I was wondering to myself why we can’t keep our Bibles on us all the time. In a way we could buy a tiny Bible and wear it round our necks. But I came to realise that that is why we wear crosses.

I encourage you, if you are feeling lonely or lost or just want to hold Jesus during His time of death. Grab your Bible and just hold it and let God’s love and appreciation for you sink in. Also, if you’re feeling like me and just want that tangability on you at all times. I think its a good time to start wearing a cross round your neck.

If you don’t have a Bible yet, You’re in luck as Y4J have just started selling them after the weekly meetings.  Get close to God during this Lenten period, in all aspects of your life. Let God work through you. I’m sure you won’t regret it.
