Genesis
“Everything has an end” Chaucer, Dickens, Riley as well as many others have offered variations on the “all good things must come to an end” sentiment. Tragedy seems to be as much a part of the human condition as life itself. From the soaring heights of last weekend’s Creation story, we find ourselves entering into seemingly irreparable brokenness. And the story continues… Innately, each of us recognizes that things are not as they should be. But do we truly see how deep the problem goes? ‘Living a better story’ means coping with the reality of the one we’ve written to this point.
So the world’s a messed up place. And as we saw last week, there’s something missing inside of us because of it. We’re not only disconnected from each other, we’re disconnected from our Creator, the author of the story itself. And as long as we remain in that state, it’s impossible for us to experience the fullness of life. Thank goodness our EPIC story doesn’t end there…
