If a forensic psychologist or detective was seeking evidence of your time in God's word, would there be any? I am not referring to a showy life. I am not thinking of works. I often will ask for a believer's Bible when officiating their loved one's funeral. It is interesting. Some Bibles feel crisp and seldom opened. Others are worn. I once opened the Bible of a dear saint in our church. The edges were tattered and folded and worn. In many places there was a fingerprint of lipstick where she licked her fingers to open the pages. The notes she had taken in her journey were a treasure. I also found coffee stains throughout this believer's Bible. I loved that. She was obviously in God's Word early in the morning. Last week I stumbled upon a Bible verse to remind us to be like this saint--leave footprints.

I hope to see you in church this Sunday!
