"Your life will contribute to a grand and wonderful story, no matter what you do. You and I are spoken. We will contribute to the narrative. But how?" How do we make great stories out of our lives? Today I'm sharing some ideas about living great stories and the blessedness of trouble and obstacles that get us there.
"They had reached their deaths by living.
So will we. How much is the Vineyard can we burn first? How fast can we run? How deeply can we laugh? Can we ever give more than we receive? How much gratitude can we show? How many of the least of these can we touch along the way? How many seeds will we get into the ground before we ourselves are planted?"
"We must not attribute our afflictions to fortune, for they are from God, nor our sins to fate, for they are from ourselves; so that, whatever trouble we are in, we must own that God sends it upon us and we procure it to ourselves: the former is a reason why we should be very patient, the latter why we should be very penitent, when we are afflicted." -Matthew Henry
