Loving Aslan more than Jesus?

I recently came across a letter from C.S. Lewis. A mother had written to the author of the Chronicles of Narnia because her son was afraid that he loved Aslan more than Jesus. Lewis’ response was pure gold…

Laurence can’t really love Aslan more than Jesus, even if he feels that’s what he is doing. For the things he loves Aslan for doing or saying are simply the things Jesus really did and said. So that when Laurence thinks he is loving Aslan, he is really loving Jesus: and perhaps loving Him more than he ever did before.

If I were Laurence I’d just say in my prayers something like this: “Dear God, if the things I’ve been thinking and feeling about those books are things You don’t like and are bad for me, please take away those feelings and thoughts. But if they are not bad, then please stop me from worrying about them. . . . And if Mr. Lewis has worried any other children by his books or done them any harm, then please forgive him and help him never to do it again.”

– C. S. Lewis: Letters to Children, pp. 52-53
