Repair before you replace! Works for me wednesday…
I love my old Bible. I got is a graduation gift from high school several years ago. My Bible has been to Haiti. Its been to college. Its been used on missions trips, at church camp, and as I planned my wedding vows. I think its beautiful! But I’ll be honest, it is totally and completely falling apart!
So, I couldn’t bear to replace it; I love this Bible! So I got out my scotch tape and my glue gun.
Its not “perfect,” but its totally doable! I can pick up my Bible without the guts falling out all over the place. My husband really wanted to replace it for me, but I really wanted to keep my old one. That money can be used else where now.
Repairing before I replace works for me!
