The Book of Books: The Holy Bible

By Brenda Lemuel Briggs


I’ve heard people say “The Bible is just a book.”

They say, “It’s filled with stories written by ordinary men.”

Some call it an inspiration, others see it as just another novel.

But I want to ask you—when you’re in real trouble, do you run to a novel?

Do you open a biography when your heart is heavy?

Do you cry out to characters in a story?

No!.

You shout “Jesus!”

You run to God.

So I ask you again:

What is the Bible to you?

On this blog, we don’t just share opinions.

We share truth—not as we feel it, but as it is.

The Bible is not just a book.

It is The Book of All Books.

Yes, it contains history. Yes, it has stories.

But beyond that, it holds the very Word of God—from the throne room of heaven.

The Bible carries power—to change situations, to deliver people, even nations.

There is no book like the Bible.

No biography has proven itself.

No novel—be it Hadley Chase or Mills & Boon—has changed lives the way the Bible has.

Even science and archaeology continue to confirm events described in Scripture.

The Bible doesn't just line up with truth—it is truth.

So again, I ask:

What is the Bible to you?

Let me tell you what it is to me.

The Bible is a book of mysteries, and it takes the Holy Spirit to unlock its secrets.

Proverbs 25:2 says,

“It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.”

When you read the Bible with faith and apply its Word to your situation—things change.

Mountains move.

Troubles bow.

Hearts are healed.

Lives are transformed.

I don’t know any other book that can do that. Do you?

So now I invite you to share your thoughts.

What is the Bible to you?

Is it just a storybook?

Or is it the living, breathing Word of God, written by holy men inspired by the Holy Spirit?

Drop your comments below. Let’s talk about it.

    To me Bible is actually the book that contains everything you need to travel thus journey of life. If you say it's the book of all books then you're right.

The Accused — Not Guilty

By Brenda Lemuel Briggs

  I’ve come to realize, in my few years on earth, that the accused are often innocent of the very things they are blamed for. In fact, they are usually the last to even know what their supposed “crime” is—if it can be called a crime at all. Many people inherit hatred toward others without ever knowing what the accused has truly done. Simply because a friend, family member, or colleague speaks negatively about someone—whether a brother, a sister, or even a stranger—they adopt that bitterness as their own. No chance is given for the accused to explain themselves or reveal who they really are. Why this happens still baffles me. Accusation—especially false accusation—cuts deeply because it attacks not only what you’ve done, but who you are. And yes, many times people inherit opinions and emotions that were never theirs to begin with. Hatred, suspicion, and bias can spread quickly—often with no evidence at all. This painful pattern happens for many reasons: ▪ People trust the ...

Why I Disappeared…The Truth I Couldn’t Share

By Brenda Lemuel Briggs

Hello everyone, At the beginning of this year, when I said Happy New Year, I made a promise that I would be consistent, that I would share more stories, more articles but  life had a different story waiting for me. 2026 didn’t start the way I imagined. I stepped into the year full of hope, excitement, and expectations. I was certain this would be my year. Instead… it tried to break me. The first blow came financially. Instead of growth, I faced losses; huge losses, running into millions. It was painful. It was shocking. And honestly, it shook me deeply. But that was only the beginning. Then my health started to fail. At first, it was subtle, just a little weakness. Then it became something I could no longer ignore. I would speak and struggle to breathe at the same time. Ordinary conversations felt like a burden. I was constantly exhausted. Walking became difficult. My body felt heavy, unfamiliar… like it was no longer mine. There were moments I thought I would collapse. ...

CAN A SUCKLING MOTHER FORGET HER CHILD?

By Brenda Lemuel Briggs

  Yes, a mother can reject and forget her child, and while it may sound shocking—real life shows us it happens more often than people admit. When a child is rejected from birth, especially over something like gender, the wound can run very deep. It’s not the child’s fault at all—the child never chose to be male or female. That rejection says more about the mother’s unhealed expectations, her cultural pressures, and maybe even her own disappointments in life. Here are a few takes on the matter: 1. Rejection is never about the child The child becomes the “mirror” of the parent’s frustrations, but the problem lies with the parent’s mindset, not the child’s existence. The pain belongs to the parent, but tragically, the child often carries the weight of it. 2. Cultural and societal pressures play a role In some cultures, a male child is considered more valuable. This can push a mother into bitterness when she births a girl, feeling she has failed her husband, her family, or society. But...
