Leah, yes their voices come and their

Words are full. And they want to be written. They want to be heard.

And, yes, one doesn’t just choose to write this kind of book. This book chooses you. You live more fully with their voices, as their voices move through you.

And once they have said their words,

They’ll say them in other ways and at other times until their story and your story is written.

You’ve been chosen to write scripture. Oral tales that become written from your memory and theirs. Sometimes it’s all we can do and everything we must do. You’re hearing the voices, and that will continue until the book is written. But of course it will continue after that. Just like your voice will also be passed on to someone that calls your name and needs to hear from you.
