The Middle of the Story

I ... join hands with others ... singing God-songs at the top of my lungs, telling God-stories.
Psalm 26:8, The Message

"We enter a world we didn't create. We grow into a life already provided for us. We arrive in a complex of relationships with other wills and destinies that are already in full operation before we are introduced. If we are going to live appropriately, we must be aware that we are living in the middle of a story that was begun and will be concluded by another. And this other is God."
