What's Your Story?


What’s your story?



Who has hurt you in your past? Thrown arrows of words that are still lodged in your heart?

What’s your story?

Did your father say one thing in anger that haunts you even now? Did your mother speak from desire to help but with the result of a lasting wound?

What’s your story?



Did a friend decide to end a friendship or just drift away without a word?

What’s your story?

Did a teacher, mentor, boss say you weren’t worth their time? Did date after date decide you weren’t worth a second look?

What’s your story?



What hurts suddenly burn your heart when you thought you had forgiven? What wounds cause you to speak that way to your own child, spouse, friend?

What’s your story?

What arrow can you not get rid of on your own? Pride, gossip, anger, scorn? Sarcasm, predjudice, envy, control?

What’s your story?




Which wounds have drawn you into God's arms? Which arrows have pushed you closer to His heart?


What's your story?


What story has God begun to write on your heart? What truth is He using to heal and cleanse?

What's your story?



Was there a sunset streaked with gold that burst through the pain and pointed your heart toward a God of beauty?

What's your story?

Was there a tiny flowering bud that whispered that there is One who cares?

What's your story?


Was there a fairy tale read as a child that spoke of a truth that there is more to this world than what you see?

What's your story?

Did you have a friend who gave good gifts just like the Giver loves to give?

What's your story?



Did a brother, sister, mother, father show the love from God that asks for nothing in return?


What's your story?


What story is God writing on your heart?
