it is a mystery how words come to us
how we always look for meaning
meaning in what we say
in what others say
our stories are who we are
in the south, people don't just give you directions,
they tell you a story about how to get where you are going
there is color in the words chosen
there is a purpose in the ramblings
in the rabbit trails
i told my story last night
it is a never ending book of God's grace and mercy
His love is on every page
His mercy in every paragraph
His grace in ever sentence
along with struggles, self doubts, frustrations, failure
in fact, this is the bulk of any story of every man or woman
this is why the cross is at the heart of all of our stories of living
this is the great meaning for all the world.
