Hello Friends,

I'm not sure who wrote this, but I once found it in a Gideon Bible that had been left at a Motel where I spent an Evening while on a Vacation trip some years ago. I had saved it over the years and I take it out and read it every so often because it still makes me stop and think.

Hope that it does you as well.

Side by Side

They lie on the table side by side
The Holy Bible and the T.V. Guide.
One is well worn and cherished with pride.
Not the Bible, but the T.V. Guide.

One is used daily to help folks decide.
No, not the Bible, but the T.V. Guide.
As the pages are turned, what shall they see.
Oh, what does it matter, turn on the T.V.

So they open the book in which they confide.
No, not the Bible, but the T.V. Guide.

The Word of God is seldom read.
Maybe a verse before they fall into bed.
Exhausted and sleepy and tired as can be.
Not from reading the Bible, from watching T.V.

So then back to the table side by side,
Lie the Holy Bible and the T.V. Guide.
No time for prayer, no time for the Word,
The plan of Salvation is seldom heard.

But forgiveness of sin, so full and free,
Is found in the Bible, not on T.V.

Have A Blessed Weekend My Friends,

Phil

Thank you so much for this.

You made me smile, laugh and share this, as well as taking in the reminder to get my priorities into order.,

What a lovely Sunday reminder.
