My father was a writer. He wrote all of his life, inflicting upon many of us his novels, plays, articles, essays, and self-help books. Some were marvelous; some merely well-intentioned. But of all the things he wrote, his journal is his legacy: by turns wise and bewildering, it neared 1,100 type-written pages when he died in 2010. Although perused many times, this is the first time it will be read - cover to cover, page after page.
In Paul's conversion, others could see the light but the voice was inside him. Maybe it is that things shared with others are sometimes less significant, unless we first respond to what is within, those unique messages spoken to no one else.
