Figuring It Out

We love stories for many reasons, but one of the comforting reasons may be because as most stories resolve, they usually end in someone figuring something out, like a problem or growing in wisdom because of the problem. As I look at all the books containing stories on my shelves, there is definitely that theme, something is somehow figured out. We read books with the anticipation of learning what will be learned or figured out. We often live life with the same anticipation...how will whatever is happening ultimately get figured out? 

How does that play out in our life's story?

Thanks for listening.
