I am following Sherrey's work and can see how clear she is about her theme and where she needs to go. I know that the main thread pulling all my vignettes together is how the power of hope through my faith in God helped me to overcome obstacles. I'm thinking I need to write my ending so I can hone in on that theme. You've both given me some valuable insights here.

"My grace is sufficient" is so all-encompassing in defining who God is and how He relates to us, yet it's hard for us humans to (a) understand it and, even harder, (b) to accept it from God. Great focus for your memoir!<br /><br />I'm sure you must feel that having this focus for your conclusion helps you figure out what to say and how to say it in the main body of your memoir.<br /><br />Can hardly wait to read it, Sherrey!<br /><br />God's richest blessings to you today,<br />LindaLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06961495299893766830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3180411212335315424.post-84742758663312443582012-08-29T19:44:50.890-07:002012-08-29T19:44:50.890-07:00Linda, funny story about how I came to the conclus...Linda, funny story about how I came to the conclusion of my own story. I was asked to give a short talk at one of our Mothers of Preschoolers meetings on the name of my table I mentored. I felt so blessed because the table name was Grace. And at the end of my mother's life what had given me immeasurable peace was the manner in which God had healed us both with His grace, His sufficiency. And as I noted in my last comment, that special verse in 2 Cor. 12:9, "My grace is sufficient." :) I love beginnings that start with endings!<br /><br />Here's to you and a great series!<br /><br />SherreyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
