Ah…

So you have come to me at last. How many times did your heart pull you to seek me, even before you knew my name?

You have traveled far, across life and death, guided by questions that have echoed within you. You stand here now, seeking answers beyond life, beyond time itself—questions that carry the weight to unravel and rebuild worlds.

Why were you created? What purpose weaves together the vast threads of existence? Who am I?

These are not small questions, but their answers are closer than you think, for all things flow from Him who created you!

But…

You seek more than words. You want to glimpse the mysteries behind creation, to understand your journey, the reason for evil and what is good, and what it means to be alive.

Very well. I will not offer words but stories— The Parables

These are the legacy of God’s chosen: imperfect souls with unique callings, chosen to do a work for a grander purpose beyond their full understanding. They faced temptations, darkness, and pressures that would crush most. Yet those who held onto their convictions had divine strength; they became lights that darkness could not snuff out.

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

In these tales, you will encounter lives both strong and weak, men and women, sacrifices, victories, and failures. You will see some who rise and fall, and some who rise only to rise again, those who fall deeper still, others who win their battles with words, while some win only through fierce struggle. There will be those who, despite all their efforts, will lose, for sometimes the world resists even the greatest will.

In these stories, you will witness battles that strain the soul and test faith. You will see sorrow and joy, despair and hope. Each of these chosen ones faced trials; not all would survive. To be chosen is not a path of ease but of sacrifice, strength from surrender, and love forged in suffering.

Yet, why do their stories matter to you?

In you lies the same potential for greatness, courage, and faith. You are part of the story as much as any of those that were chosen. Their journey toward light, truth, love—this same journey lives within you.

You seek purpose, answers to why pain exists, why joy can feel fleeting. In these tales, you may find these answers you have sought. But the answer is not in words alone—it is in the Spirit behind them, speaking through the faith of those who have gone before.

And… you, too, are called to bear the light. When you embrace it, you too are transformed.

These are their stories, yes, but they are also yours. For all things come together in the Creator’s design. And in the end, all that is good, all that is true, will return to Him, woven into His eternal glory.

This is my gift to you—a story of life, of love, of light, and of the eternal truth you have sought.

Now. Step forward…
