Good evening ladies of hive
I hope you all are doing well,for me am having my hectic days.
I was just going through contest of the week and I came across this particular one.
It being long I haven't posted here but am moved to take part of this particular contest.
And the question for contest 2 is "Since gifts are given at this time of year, or any time of year, what would you like to receive if you could choose your own gift, and why?"
Yeah!!!! These is the season of sharing love and exchange of give.
Have never been opportuned to receive gift from any where or any source. Sometimes that makes my dad but strong.
When I saw this question I was moved to write about it.
My greatest gift I want to receive this year is the
HOLY BIBLE.

Right now a lot of ladies here are wonder why will she prefer a Bible as her gift.
Yes,I choose the Bible not because I don't have it but because someone that had a better understanding and knowledge of it took it from me at that time, Even myself I was always like there is no need to use the Bible in hard copy since I already had the soft copy one right in my phone,I usually tell myself that I can easily access my Bible anywhere I go but the truth remains that each time I try reading my Bible using my phone I usually get distracted easily, sometimes I'll feel bored,then i will start chatting,I'll go to different social media platforms even right inside the church sometimes I play games which there are not good.
I can remember in the book of Joshua 1 vs 8 which says
"And these book of the Lord shall not depart from your mouth but thou shalt meditate it day and night,that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written in it therein;for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous and the thou shalt have good success ,"
(KJV)
I can shamelessly tell you ladies that these book is the Lord left me and I feel very empty.

You see,when you have bad friends in life you will always see the results.
My friends were they ones that pushed me to give out my Bible,they made me feel it wasn't relevant,they made me believe I can still leave without the Bible, but it isn't true.
I really need this Bible for 2023.
I am ready to build up my spiritual life and I can only achieve these when I read the Bible day and night,with my coloured pencil to underline the important things have noted.
Bible is very important, necessary, expedient in every human lives
It our compass
Soo I will really be over happy if someone can or will surprise me that as my Christmas gift i will be forever grateful.
This one comes first before any other material things.
That you so very much for reading my post.
Have a lovely night.
Would prefer a certain version or style of Bible: Like NIV, ASV, ESV, NKJV, NASB etc. Or that in your language?
❤️
That is NKJV
A good translation based on the original 1611 King James updating the language while maintaining the vernacular and nuance of old English.
The Word of God is very important, and whereas the digital Bibles do have their place, there is nothing that compares to paging through His Word in book form! I too, prefer a book version, although, there are times that I too, use the digital.
I am sure God is hearing your request. Pray about it as well. Could the church help you get one? Just thinking out loud. Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!🤗💜
No doubt
God will answer my prayers
Thank you so very much
