a whole story,
but not a finished story –
not just a collection
of isolated events,
sound-bytes, or bullet points.
It is a living novel whose
author
must rely on and trust both omniscience and mercy beyond self.
If you aren’t discovering,
helping write, and learning how
to tell and live the saga
of your own deliverance,
you will not be capable
of stepping back and removing
yourself from the helm
of someone else’s narrative;
grace’s character cannot find
her way to page and lives.
