WHERE WAS an old lady who I loved her Bible very much. Although she had memorized much of it, still she loved to look up and read her favorite verses. As she grew older her eyesight began to fail. She could no longer see to read, but she was not disheartened by this fact.
The Bible she owned was the large family style, and she stuck a pin in each of her special verses. When friends came to see her, she would open her Bible, and feeling for a pin, she would say, “Read that one.”
By and by she got so clever at knowing where the pins were, that she could tell each verse by its pin. After her death the pins were counted. They numbered 180! How many favorite verses have you?
