God writes to us in short stories. In our lives without God and each other, Life is but a vapor that appears a while, then vanishes away.

--James 4:14

The author thanks God for loving us enough to help us in and with our God-given life narratives. The ones found here are true stories, some entwined with tall tales. In them, the author can come to her own mind, heart, and soul and trust we are more alike than anything. Only in faith the personal mind, body, and spirit can risk openly to talk, feel, and experience life as it comes to pass. Creatively with God's talent, he teaches us his way to share with others. Then we do receive from him blessedly. God is the creator of who we are and become. The Lord will perfect that which concerns me (Psalm 138:8). Read, heal, and believe God does write.
