As we were driving to school this morning, my daughter was in the backseat diligently studying for her bible test.  Bible is the first subject of the day at her school, and every week they have a bible verse to memorize.  That is one thing I absolutely love about the school that we chose for my daughter.  It is a private Christian school where the students do not have to be afraid to pray like so many school aged children are today.  The school WANTS you to pray, often times asking you to lead in prayer.  They encourage God to be ever present and welcome at school on a daily basis!  That is so refreshing!

Back to her bible verse.

She handed me her bible and began to recite verse after verse in Ephesians.  I was quite impressed that the words flowed from her mouth so freely, never pausing to think of what came next. She just KNEW.  I praised her for the excellent manner in which she recited the bible verse, and I sat there amazed at my child.  She had a large bible verse to memorize, and she never skipped a beat from start to finish once she got started.

As I handed the bible back to her, I noticed the bible from her childhood days.  While it is still in good condition, my thoughts immediately went to getting her a more grown up version of the bible.  She is at an in between stage right now.  She’s not a young child any more, but at 11 years old, she is not quite a teen.  I think this is what they refer to as the “Tween” stage.

I came across the NIV Bible For Teen Girls, Growing In Faith Hope Love, New International Version.  From the pretty green cover, to the words boldly printed “FAITH * HOPE * LOVE,” I knew that she would soon fall in love with this bible just as I had when I first laid my eyes on it.

Carefully opening the cover, on the “presented to” page was the bible verse:

1 Corinthians 13:13

And now these three remain:  

Faith, Hope, and Love.

But the greatest of these is love.

Indeed!

As I flipped further through this bible, I found pages where it talked about women of the bible as well as different situations they may encounter.  This bible will encourage them by the words God has given us all for our daily walks, but this bible will also support them and help them discover His will for there lives in all areas from family, guys, friends, work, and more.

One thing that caught my eye was the scriptures highlighted in pink.  Those verses, I found, are God’s promises!

I am very excited to present this bible to my daughter this afternoon when I pick her up from school.  I know she will be delighted, and her little face will light up as she opens the bible to read all about the goodness of God.

I’d like to offer you an opportunity to have a bible just like this for your daughter.  Please enter the giveaway below!
