The Best Story Ever Told
We thank God for the gift of wordsโ the way they can stir our imaginations with tales of talking lions and wicked witches. Through books, we can explore new worlds that are built meticulously from brains God knit himself. We discover true stories about world-traveling adventures, world-shattering hardships, or philosophical ruminations about what it actually means to be human.
We get to know different people, different cultures, and different points of viewโ all without actually leaving the page (or our bed).
The best thing about the best stories is that theyโre retellings of the truest one of allโ reminders of what it means to be brave, to be loved, to be known, to be redeemed.
As you crack open the pages of your book todayโ whichever one it might beโ use this prayer to invite God to meet you there.ย
โFinally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirableโif anything is excellent or praiseworthyโthink about such thingsโ (Philippians 4:8).
A Prayer for Reading a Book
Word of Life, open my eyes to see you and my mind to learn more about you through these pages. Author of Creation, protect me against anything that would lead me astray. Help me hold on to all that is true, good, and beautiful. May I sense your presence as I read and find you closer with each turning page. Amen.
