Because Jesus Christ has prepared Himself from the foundations of the world we can trust Him as one uniquely qualified through the fullness of His love for His Father and us.Â His love, meekness, condescension, knowledge, power, commitment to agency, and obedience combine to bring this elusive peace to all of Godâ€™s children.Â Our peace was purchased by the shedding of the innocent blood of Godâ€™s purest Son.Â Our trust in His capacity to bring us this peace can be complete because that has been part of His work and His glory from the beginning.

An excess of development can undermine the most ephemeral but distinctive tool a writer possesses: authorial voice. A writer's voice is as individual and marked as a thumbprint, and is a playwright's truest imprimatur. It is as innate as breathing, and can be as unique as any genetic code. By its very singular nature, it is seldom born in the act of collaboration. True authorial voice always pre-dates the first rehearsal of a text. And it is - and will always be - an author's most distinguishing and valuable feature.

I wonder if I would have done this or done that, how things would have turned out.â€™ I want to, when itâ€™s all said and done, be able to put my head on my pillow and say, â€˜I did everything I could do â€” good or bad.â€™
