Everybody has a story, but God’s story is the only one that really matters.

“his” story he said, “That's quite remarkable because something like 
that happened to me.” Then he went on and retold that story as though 
he was telling it for the very first time. As far as I knew, he never 
caught on. I simply listened as though I was hearing it for the very 
first time. 

Occasionally, I will think of one of his stories and it brings a certain
sense of encouragement to my heart. Although he has been dead these 
many years, his stories still live in my heart to this very day. I only 
wish I was as good a storyteller as he was. 

One thing he taught me was that everything that happens in a person's
life, whether good or bad, is seed for a story. I am quite sure that 
there was a seed of truth in every story he told me. I never could tell 
where the twist was in any of his stories. He was such a wonderful 
brother that I really did not care. 

Sometimes when my wife and I are talking I will say, “Did I ever tell
you the story...?” To which my wife will always respond, “Yes, you did 
Brother Lloyd.” 

I chuckled and then thought of what David said. “Let the words of my
mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O 
Lord, my strength, and my redeemer” (Psalm 19:14). 

Everybody has a story, but God's story is the only one that really
matters.
