I am fascinated by a book I received last summer while we visited a family friend in California, they always give us “take home” (books)  food for the soul. First I was a little reluctant about taking the book over seas because it’s kind of big and heavy and our luggage were full but since we were on our way to the airport when we received it, we  had to take it…. and what a great decision!!! I started reading it to Isaiah and it became one of our favorite books. It’s soo well written and soo deep. I am sure that it will take Isaiah a few years to grasp the depth of this book’s teachings but I feel responsible to sow the seeds of God’s Word in his heart.

The book is called : The Big Picture Story Bible, by David Helm (Author), Gail Schoonmaker (Illustrator)

The book presents to the readers a BIG GOD with a BIG LOVING HEART who KEEPS HIS BIG PROMISE!

The book takes you through the stories of the Bible to show you the big picture of God’s love for you!

There are many passages filled by so much depth but here is an excerpt that I really like – it talks about  the birth of Jesus  “While Caesar, the king of the Roman world, was showing everyone how great he was by counting all of his people, GOD, the king of the universe was showing the world how great HE was by sending His Son into the world as one of his people.” (page 255) Don’t you think this is so beautiful, so humbling and so loving!?!

Here is the link of the book from amazon
