About Bible Stories

One of the many things the Bible stories have taught me is that God loves me, just as I am. I don’t have to struggle for some kind of moral perfection impossible to attain. It is the biblical protagonists who, like us, far from perfect, show us how to be truly human. I don’t believe that God deliberately made me with one leg considerably longer than the other, but that is how I am, and I am loved that way, resultant clumsiness and all. I knew that God loves me as I am, so I was able to accept the wondrous truth that my husband did too—one result of enjoying my faith! For we cannot give love if we cannot accept it.
