Devotion on Sharing the Gospel, Missions, Joy in the Journey, Psalm 118:24. 1 page.

This is the day that the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118:24).

The first Bible to be translated into an indigenous language in Australia was the Kriol Bible. Their dedication ceremony was in May 2007. Cameron Townsend, founder of Wycliffe Bible Translators, first thought of going to Australia to translate the Bible into indigenous languages back in the 1940s. What better cause for celebration than to read the printed Bible in one’s heart language for the first time – to think, “God speaks my language.”
