A pastor's wife in Tennessee ordered twenty Bible verse jars, and when I called her, she told me exactly who each one was for. I work at God Is Above, and the big orders all come across my table. Most of our orders are one jar, or one for each grandchild. But every week there are a few that look different. Twelve jars to a Methodist church in Indiana. Ten to a Baptist church in Georgia, with a note that said "for the widows' lunch." Twenty to a little church in Tennessee, ordered by the pastor's wife. I got curious, so I called her. Her name is Ruth. She has been the pastor's wife at that church for thirty one years. I asked her, "Who are twenty jars for?" She laughed and said, "Honey, do you have a pen?" Then she went down her list. Four for the widows who sit together on the third pew. Three for the young mothers in the nursery, "because nobody asks them how they're doing." Two for women whose grown sons stopped coming to church, "because they can't say that out loud in Sunday school." One for a woman named Marjorie who moved to town in September to be near her daughter, and who has sat alone in the back every Sunday since. One for the church secretary. And the rest for her own Bible study, so they could all read the same color on the same morning. Then she told me why she does it. She said, "Do you know what the widows showed Peter when Dorcas died?" I didn't. She read it to me over the phone. Acts 9:39. "All the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them." They didn't show him her sermons. They showed him the coats. She said, "Women like me don't preach from the pulpit. But we can put something in a woman's hands that she will still have when we're gone." I have thought about that every day since. Here is what she was putting in their hands. It is a small glass jar with a cork lid, and the label says "Read me when..." Ninety verses inside a jar. Not sorted by book, sorted by what you're feeling. Every verse is King James, with the book and chapter printed on the slip. Yellow is for happy. Light pink is for thankful. Hot pink is for angry. Green is for anxious. Light blue is for lonely. Blue is for sad. You pick the color for the day you are having, unfold one slip, and read one verse. About twenty seconds. Ruth said the light blue ones are the reason she ordered. "Lonely is the one nobody at church admits to," she said. "But every one of those twenty women has it." After I talked to Ruth, I went looking through our reviews for people who had done the same thing on a smaller scale. They were everywhere. Sherry H.: "I gave two of my friends a Bible verse jar on Sunday and they loved them!" Paula C.: "I handed out three to friends who also find the verses useful in everyday situations." Margery C.: "I gave the verse jar to a friend who is going through a hard time and she is finding it most helpful." Mc L. bought one for the staff room at work, "so the staff can grab one anytime they feel the need." Angela C.: "Such a thoughtful, prayerful gift. So simple but yet powerful!" So if you have been wondering why a church orders ten at a time, here is who it is usually for. The widow who still sets two places at the table. The new woman who sits in the back and leaves before the last hymn. The young mother who has not finished a cup of coffee in three years. The friend whose son stopped coming. The grandchildren, of course, one for each. And one for you, so you are reading the same verses they are. Here is the practical part. Every jar is handmade and arrives in a black gift box, ready to hand to someone. It is 60% off right now, shipping is free, and it ships the same day. A set of Christian ebooks comes free with each order. There is a 30 day guarantee. If it is not right, you get every cent back. Over 500,000 jars have gone out to families and churches, and there are bundle options on the page if you are ordering several. Because they are filled by hand, the big church orders before Christmas empty a batch faster than anything else. If the link below still works, there are jars left. 👉 https://godisabove-us.com/pages/grandparents-secret-7-reasons-why P.S. Ruth called me back a month later. Marjorie, the woman in the back pew, now sits on the third pew with the widows. Ruth said, "She told me she pulls a light blue one every Sunday morning before she leaves the house." P.P.S. If a name came to mind while you were reading this, that is probably who the first one is for. https://godisabove-us.com/pages/grandparents-secret-7-reasons-why
