As she turned another page in her book it seemed so odd to her that someone would know her life so well. From the beginning of the book until the end, it was as though the Author had viewed her life. How could He have known me? How could my life be played out on these pages? The sin, the fear, the questions, the anger, the hope, the joy, the rebirth, all of it so clearly printed in black and white.

Who is this Author that knows me so well and knows the intimate details of my life? Who is this that journeyed through my life with me and wrote it all down so others may see? For I was the woman who lied to her husband and flirted with the rest of the world. For I was the adulteress woman who stood before her accusers waiting to be stoned. For I was the woman at the well drawing water that would never satisfy her thirst. For I was the woman who wept at the feet of her Master and washed His feet with her tears. And miraculously, I was the woman who was healed by the simple touch of His cloak.

She flipped through the pages to measure what was left to read. I’m almost to the end, she thought, but I don’t want it to be over! I want to see my life again from beginning to end! But why, she thought, and then a smile came on her face. To meet the Author of course.

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith…
Hebrews 12:2 (NIV)
