These Best Bible Stories

I couldn't remember how many books, children's story books have been given to our daughter as gifts from friends. Sure, I am thankful for it all, but when it comes to stories that we tell Triz be it during bed time or just on ordinary times when she asks for one, we always turn to Bible stories first. At her age now, we wanted her to learn more about the Bible first, those Bible stories with characters who played the role for real, gifted with God's leading and who in the same way, obeyed what God wanted them to do. I can't help but mention Moses who was a great leader. Then there was Noah who, for me was the greatest preacher. David, who sinned and disobeyed many times but was able to do mighty works and wonders and before his life ended, was able to surrender everything to God. And Job, whose humility was incomparable. But I love the story of Joseph most of all. Joseph, one of the 12 sons of Jacob, who was sold by his own brothers to the Egyptians, was able to experienced so much hardship in his young life. Became imprisoned for the things he didn't do, tempted by the Pharaoh's wife but was able to resist evil. and temptation. With God's leading, He became a mighty ruler and his line which I quote "I ought to obey God rather than man", is the most courages act of faith. I think it is the same line that Daniel and his three friends dared to voiced out to the king and it was just a total enactment of faith. Truly admirable.

I am always inspired to express my faith as well everytime I think of how those Bible characters were able to practice theirs. Find out more Bible Stories if you are interested through books and the Bible itself. Today's age have many children who seem to be getting a little behind from the Bible stories and truth. Obedience to parents, and being good to our fellowmen are but the few things that one could learn when the Bible stories will be related to one's own life.
