Yup! I agree...I make all kinds of notations and scribbles in my Bible and
I love to read over them...it kind of adds insight to the past (although
whether or not this is actually USEFUL is up for debate). But I could also
see the point my friend was making...only I think God prefers us to search
out His truth in all things...I don't think He's the type to worry about a
couple of scribbles and notes. And I don't know that I'd want to follow or
worship a God that is that anal anyway. Is THAT sacrilegious?? *g*
