What Is A Home Without A Bible?

The following poem by an unknown author asks the question, “What is a home without a Bible?” and then answers the question.

“What is a home without a Bible?
’Tis a home where day is night.
Starless night, for o’er life’s path,
heaven can shed no kindly light.

What is a home without a Bible?
’Tis a home where daily bread
For the body is provided,
but the soul is never fed.

What is a home without a Bible?
’Tis a family out at sea,
Compass lost and rudder broken,
drifting, drifting, thoughtlessly.”

Beloved, what would our home be like without a Bible? Would it be just as it is now, or would it be very different?

It’s something to seriously think about! (cf. 2 Timothy 2:15;  Psalm 78:1-8).
