My wife and I recently moved. As a matter of fact, there are still a lot of boxes stacked around the house, waiting to be unpacked.

Many of those boxes contain books. These were some of the heaviest boxes we had to deal with in our move. It might have been prudent if I had culled some of my books before the move, but I have a hard time letting go of a book once I purchase it.

So we have been unpacking books. “His” books, “her” books, and “our” books. Books for the office and books for the house. Books about health, books about spiritual growth, books about history, books about nature, fiction books…books, books, books!

Many of the books I own I have not yet read, but I hope to do so. I understand that unless I read a book, it cannot do me any good. I cannot possibly benefit from any book that sits on my shelf unread.

The same is true for the Bible. Happy reading everyone!
