S cott Foresman makes our language book,” Paul Kent announced one day. “ I know they put out that book. Do you like it?” “Yes, I’ve had fun learning from it. But how do you know about the book? Is he a friend of yours?” “Yes, I think I could call ‘him’ a friend of mine, honey,” Mother an swered with a smile. “ I don’t person ally know anyone connected with the publishing of the book. But all the authors and publishers of books which have either inspired or informed me are my friends.” “Aw, you don’t know all the people in the world who write books,” the young doubter asserted, “ so how can they be your friends?” “ They are my friends because what they have written or published has either helped me learn something I never knew before or they challenged me to be a better person.” “ But you haven’t studied out of my language book. This Mr. Scott Fores man would be my friend, not yours.” “ It’s true, son, that I haven’t studied out of your book. But Daddy and I always look over all your school textbooks because we want to know what you are being taught in them. A textbook can be either the best friend a boy or girl ever had or the very worst enemy.” “ How come? It can’t fight with me like Butch does.” “ It can become your enemy in the same way it can be your friend — in what it teaches you. Who are spoken of most in the Bible and from whom does the teaching come?” “ God and the Lord Jesus.” “ You’re right, Paul. Do you agree with me that the Bible teaches us things we never knew before? And does it encourage all Christians to live a better life daily?” “Uh huh.” “ If God is your Friend in a special sense because of all the wonderful things you learn about Him from His Book, can you understand now why I said Scott Foresman is my friend?” “Yep. And the best book writer friend to have is God because He wrote the Bible.” “You’ve learned this lesson well, sweetie. Don’t ever fail to study the Bible because the story of your best Friend is found in its pages. So drink deeply from its well of wisdom.”
