Recently I experienced somewhat of an emotional and spiritual combustion. My wife showed me how her Bible was falling apart. She had been reading this particular Bible since 2004 and now the binding was falling apart and threatening to come completely undone. 
I remembered that Crossway guarantees their leather and tru-tone ESV Bibles so I dropped them a note and confirmed this. In a few days she had a brand new Bible free of charge. (major props to Crossway)
I was thankful and thrilled as I started thinking about all the days of reading, chewing, and thinking on the Scriptures that have led to this destruction. My wife’s steady Bible work was, at that moment, very attractive. Think about the accumulative effect of the daily intake of the Word. God steadily and continually reforms and conforms the minds of his saints by his powerful Word so that we might think his thoughts after him. What a privilege it is to be confronted and consoled with the divine Word.
We are so fortunate to live in a time where we have such ready access to the Scriptures. God is so kind and good to give us such blessed resources.
And God is so kind to work so powerfully in my wife’s life as she feasts at the table of God.
