To apply 'god is in the story' to our daily lives, we first need to have a mindset of awareness. Every day is filled with countless small and big events. We should start seeing these events as chapters in the story of our lives. When we meet a new person, it could be that God has placed that person in our story for a reason, like to teach us something new or to help us grow in our character. When we encounter challenges, instead of getting frustrated, we should think that God is there in this part of the story. Maybe He is using this situation to strengthen our faith or to show us a different path. By constantly looking for God's presence in the ordinary and extraordinary moments of our day - to - day existence, we are applying this concept. It gives a deeper sense of purpose and connection to something greater than ourselves.
We can look for signs of God's presence in the events that happen to us each day, seeing our own lives as a story where God is involved.
One way to apply it is by reflecting on the good and bad things that occur. If we consider them as part of a larger story guided by God, we can find meaning in difficulties. For example, if we face a setback at work, instead of just seeing it as a random event, we can think that God is in this story, perhaps trying to teach us patience or guiding us to a different opportunity. Also, in our relationships, when we experience love and kindness, we can view it as God's presence in the story of our interactions with others.
