Books
are dangerous. They sometimes awaken the
dead.
Books
enlighten, enrapture, educate and
illuminate.
Oh
my. We must be careful around books.
You do
see, don’t you, that it is the WORDS inside the books that explode and create
change.
Words
have power. Words change minds and
hearts. They enlighten and educate. They encourage and inspire.
Yes
indeed. Books can cause all kinds of
havoc.
On
the other hand … what has a book ever done in your life?
I
could name names. Perhaps I should.
~The Bible is a torch light in my life
~How to Win Friends and Influence People
has given me some solid grounding in my people skills.
~The Ragamuffin Gospel has opened
up the world of grace to me.
~Brene
Brown’s Daring Greatly has helped me
understand and deal with shame.
~Napoleon
Hill’s Think and Grow Rich and The Law of Success have given me solid
mind conditioning.
~Og
Mandino’s The Greatest Salesman in the
World gave me ten principles for a lifetime of living.
I
could go on, and if you are familiar with any of these titles, you already
understand the power of the words they contain.
If
you read, read wisely and with an open mind.
If
you don’t read, find the time and make a commitment to yourself to begin this
week.
Books
are important.
The
words inside of them are more important.
