Pastor Samuel Gordon knew a woman who had memorized much of the Bible, but old age began taking her memory from her. At last, she could only remember one verse of Scripture, 2 Timothy 1:12 "For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that day". In time she began to lose that verse too, being able to only recall the words:....what I have committed to Him. When she came to her deathbed, her loved ones noticed her lips moving. Bending low, they heard her repeating one solitary word over and over: Him, Him, Him. Dr. Gordon noted that she had lost the whole Bible but one word. But in that one word, she had the whole Bible.
