Years ago Ernest Hemingway was asked to write a 6 word story. He wrote “For sale baby shoes never worn”. As a parent who has lost a baby I can say that is truly and entire story which Hemingway wrote.

Ortberg gathered a list of such “life” stories. “Cursed with cancer, Blessed with friends” and “Not a good Christian but trying”. He added what might have been said by certain Bible charcters. Here is his idea as to what their life story would have been if condensed to 6 words.

Noah “Hated the rain, loved the rainbow”

Good Samaritan “I cam. I saw. I stopped.”

Esau “At least the soup was good”.

Jonah “No! Storm. Overboard. Fish. Vomit. Yes!”

Mary “Manger. Pain. Joy. Cross. Pain Joy”.

“Not quiet what I was planning” could be the 6 word life story of many individuals. It is a challenge to think of your life in a short 6 words but maybe you can give it a try.
