bible. b-i-b-l-e. bible.

okay, so its official, i'm afraid of a book. one little red book. the front reads "LIVE: Holy Bible"- when i already have close to around 10+ bibles, one could begin to wonder why i just bought another one. but i needed to. every bible i've ever had, for the most part, has felt untouchable and off-limits to my color and creativity. it was there to read when i needed to find something for school, but otherwise served as a wonderful dust collector. but now i'm befuddled. my bible came with stickers?? yep. and it has creative space. and pictures. and quotes. and poems. and art. and... stuff that attracts me. that allows me to bring God's word to my life.  i can finally draw, write, and color. highlight, underline, and circle. box, square, and emphasize. decorate, read, listen.
