Story

This week so far has been crazy cool, I have realized how much I really love a good story. Our speaker this week also has been telling us a lot of different stories about how God has given him different things which has been really cool. I used to hate reading and spending time in a book but I have realized I dont hate all books I just dont like boring books. Boring books are to me books that have a whole bunch of information in them but not a single piece of practical stories that back them up. My friend Kaci a couple days ago let me borrow this book by Donald Miller called A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. If you are looking for a good story to start reading I would recommend it. I am only 70 pages in but I have really enjoyed it. I love it when people can be real in things that they write. To me is nothing worse then someone who is completely fake. This book is about Don writing a screen play about his book Blue Like Jazz. The awesome thing about it is he has to recreate his life in a way that would be exciting on a movie screen. He talks about how creating a character for a screenplay is sort of like when God creates a person. God designs a person and places them into the family they should go into and allows them to create their own story within his master story. It is a really cool thing to think about. God has this huge master story that He has written and we all have small little mini storys within this master story. We have a freedom to create a sub-story as part of Gods story! Hope that sparks something cool to think about for everyone who reads this!
