In moving my books back from school to home, I began flipping through some of them, remembering which ones were gifts from friends. It brought me so much joy to read the personal notes jotted on the inside covers. Here are a few I came across...
"Always remember that the gospel is the beautiful news that 'It is finished!' It is not primarily about doing (morality); Rather, it is about what has been done by Jesus for a helpless sinner like you and me. We love you brother."
"I hope you enjoy this book and it blesses your life like it has mine. How sweet it is to be received and kept by Jesus. Can't wait to see how God continues to display his wondrous grace. Keep walking pilgrim."
"Remember that NOTHING can stop God's furious love and delight of you because of Christ's work on your behalf. In Him you have all things you could want and need."
Who cares what the actual books are about!
