In this place we are reminded of the Christian book reader’s motto: “In your light do we see light” (Ps. 36:9). We are humbled, but we are encouraged. We grab a new book and we press on, not as slaves bound to a chore, but as liberated sinners who read to delight in the gifts of our God. We press on, reading and thanking God for the light we do see in books, and for his illuminating grace that lights our way.
