IF YOU WERE THE ONLY BIBLE
If you were the only Bible
Your neighbor ever read
Could they find their way to Heaven
By what you did or said?
If you were the only Bible
Your co-worker ever saw
Could they tell that you serve Jesus,
Or you followed some Law?
If you were the only Bible
Your family ever heard
Could they repeat a Bible Verse
Or just some angry word?
If you were the only Bible
That your children were to read
Would they grow up to follow Christ,
As you planted the Seed?
If you were the only Bible
That the hurting heard you share
Would they know that you were genuine
And that you truly care?
If you were the only Bible
That your friend was to hear
Could they believe the gospel
Because you made it clear?
If you were the only Bible
The world should ever see
Would they know, that you were once a sinner
But now Christ has set you free?
If you wish to be the Bible
That you hope to share
You must spend time reading God's Word
And bathing it in prayer.
Samuel L. Saalwaechter
