Abba's Poetry: Stories That Matter

At the time, my dad had just graduated from Bible school, and our family was all set to move back to the U.S. But they couldn't travel until after I was born, so they sat around waiting for me to show up. When I was several days overdue, Mom went to the hospital in the nearby city, where they induced labor, and out I came. Another eight days later, our family moved. I've been moving ever since. Jeff again: Another time, we were riding in our camper with some scared rabbits who dropped pellets all over the floor. So we had to sit with our feet up, and every time Dad went around a corner, the pellets rolled all around. Mom and Dad were up in the cab, and my sister drew them pictures of rabbits and pellets to explain our situation, but when they didn't give her the attention she felt she deserved, she got them back by posting in the camper's back window, "Help! We've been kidnapped!" I'm not sure what kinds of questions we'll ask next time, but I do know there will be a next time. Jeff's workbook says that the way parents retell their stories, in other words how they do or don't make sense of their past lives, is the most powerful indicator of whether or not their children will grow up with a sense of attachment or security in their lives. If the parent can share a coherent, reflective and emotionally engaged narrative about their childhood, the more likely it is the children will have a good relationship with them. "That tells us that if you can make sense of your story, you can change its impact on your life. It doesn't have to control you. Your destiny is not determined by your past. Your destiny is determined by how you see the sovereign hand of God at work in all of your life. Your past may have been horrific like mine, but once the Holy Spirit raises your vision to see a holy and gracious Father at work in your life, literally everything changes.
