Bible Cover

My new Bible cover has a zipper you open and close using a cross … On the one hand I rely on the cross to open and close a side pocket to my Bible. Should I rely on this cross … yes but should it be on the side? Shouldn’t it be on the main zipper? Shouldn’t it be the one that opens to the Book? Shouldn’t it be the cross, by pulling, tugging, yanking on it, open eyes, heart, and mind to the truth? Can I trust enough that if i lean on this object, it will aid me in opening my life to the Word? Do i love my new cover more than what it covers? as I flipped to the back i noticed the tag “Genuine Leather Body” it states, “with simulated leather trim.” is my faith only genuine leather with simulated leather trim?
