Which book have you read more than any other?
Oh, this is probably the easiest question I’ll answer this morning while in flight somewhere over Texas!
The Bible is the only book I have truly devoted myself to reading since I was a child, aside from the dictionary when I was learning English. When I was 13 years old, my mom was upset with me and told me she was not going to take me to church with her anymore. My response at the time was that the greatest place to worship is in the quietness of your own prayer closet, seeking God sincerely—not simply being surrounded by people who may judge others.
So, I stayed home and read my Bible. At such a young age, I began gaining understanding, wisdom, and a deeper relationship with God. I continue reading it today, not because I have all the answers, but because I continue to seek clarity, guidance, and a greater understanding of our Heavenly Father.
The Bible is the way, the truth, and the life. It is the closest thing we have to knowing God’s heart, His teachings, and His love for us. It is the one book I have returned to more than any other, and it continues to guide me every day. -CM
