Honestly, honesty.

I got a new Bible this year for Christmas. It's an ESV Bible so the translation is a little different than what I'm used to. It's good though because then I can't cop out on scripture memory. I mean, some of the verses just don't sound like they used to.

So, it's good to relearn them in a different translation.

But as I was marking up my new Bible I got to thinking...

Ya know that moment when you look around at everyone else and think:

All these people are more normal than I am.

Well, I thought that this morning when I was looking at my Bible.

See, I have a feeling my Bible is different than everyone else's. 

I mean...

I don't think the actual printed words are different.

I think the notes I've made are different.

Let's take a look see, shall we?

Thing the first:

I'm a doodler.

I'm so bad about doodling that I even have to write myself notes to tell myself to stop doodling. 

Ridiculous.

Surely other people don't doodle in their Bibles.

Thing the second:

I'm perhaps a tad too...opinionated.

A tad too honest.

Because for every nice pretty note I've made like this one:

and this one:

and this one:

And even this one:

There are more that look like this one:

and this one:

and 

And this one:

But dang it!

Some of it is hard stuff!

And some of it is strange language!

I mean...

Perhaps 'horrid' is taking it a little far...

Yeah...

That's too far.

I guess there is such a thing as too much honesty.

"Wow, lady. I'm only two and even I know that."

So noted.

I told you people someone needed to take the pen away.

And possibly the laptop.

Who knew trying to memorize scripture would cause such controversy?!
