People often say I exaggerate life. I’m not sure that’s possible really. It’s much bigger or grander than we imagine, and there are so many unseen realms intersecting at any given moment! Just ask Daniel, the prophet.

The setting alone is an endlessly enormous room which we have barely learned to live in! Each of us are novels God’s been wanting to write forever! Our names and stories (paths prepared beforehand-ephesian 2:10) are written in Him somehow. So, both identity and calling are held secure in Love. Yet, we are novices at being written well!

It’s hard to exaggerate what really is. Hyperbole may be, at least in the right direction of the truth. “Sometimes one must yell, to pronounce Silence.”
Or, as the writer Flannery O’connor put it: “Sometimes I have to caricature my characters, so the reader can hear redemption.”
