Our Wonder Room

I Want to See

“One day I was speeding along at the typewriter, and my daughter — who was a child at the time — asked me, ‘Daddy, why are you writing so fast?’ And I replied, ‘Because I want to see how the story turns out!'”
–Louis L’Amour, novelist (1908-1988)

Reading this quote by L’Amour this morning reminded me of something I heard yesterday on the radio as I was driving. Though I can’t remember which speaker I was listening to on the Calvary Network, the message was about the Bible (surprise). Part of the talk went something like this, “There are textbooks and school books which have the answers in the back of the book. Used properly they are there to help you. To encourage you. The Bible is all about the Good News. And it too has the answers in the back of the book. In this battle against the forces of evil we already know who wins.”

You and I, as part of His team, are part in His victory. To me, my “job” here is to get as many others as I can into the victory party.
