The Bible is more than words It’s faith in the author, the writer Of every dream, every future He wrote the stars and the snowflake He wrote the oaks, pines and laurel He wrote the hearts and the souls More than anything, the Bible is… Abiding peace, a grace that believes In eternity – The Scriptures reveal… His ability to bring joy on earth, Miracles from a life He has saved, Abundance, even when there is doubt The Bible tells me… To listen to the ideas, the inspirations Stirred to life by His spirit, His kindness Promising to give every life a new beginning Every soul a new experience and every Thought a chance to heal, a chance to bring Beauty from the pain, joy from the sorrow… Compassion from the rejection that knows Only heartbreak and heartrending shame The Bible promises me… With Him by my side, I can always claim The victory, defeating every enemy With the love that He brings to life inside Love that is forever, eternally alive – Love that survives even the worst that comes Love that decides – to bring joy to the world! The Bible truly is – inescapable, indescribable Inexplicable and extraordinary – It contains The light of life on every page, in every word There is abiding faith, amazing grace, the beauty That lives in the life who truly believes, the life That He has given the answers in words breathed By the One whose spirit is the most authentic love! The Bible, my friend – holds the answers to every need It is alive, more powerful than the deepest poetry It is wise, more clever than any narrative in the world It is life, more influential than any force on earth It is God’s word – the solution to every worry or fear, The promise that assures every heart who believes The Bible, my friend – is the spirit’s response to disbelief God’s word brings truth without reservation – in promises That stir up faith that is everlasting, faith that is His answer

It does everything you've listed, Gina, and is a comfort to read when times are tough, and a source of strength when we need faith.
