The Runner in the Night and the Storyteller

Always there is a story. 

And sometimes that story lands in the hands of a story teller so masterful that all the thoughts rattling around in your own mind just STOP. And take in the awe.

 Many of us know that Ann Voskamp is such a master, but her telling of this story silences me. 

Do be blessed and go see.

    Sweet mercy, that woman is amazing. Loved this line: "That low lying storm cloud that hangs over you can’t master the light of Christ that raises you." That's a good word for me right now.

    Thanks for sharing, Marcia :)

    Sweet mercy, indeed! God has gifted her to tell a story like none other. My favorite line was the same one Susan shared. Powerful stuff.

    Thanks for sharing, Marcia. :)

    Thank you for sharing the post, Marcia. Gives the rest of us hope that what we do in our daily lives might actually prepare us for something much bigger, if we only try.
