Faith Lifts Friday

My post is up over at Faith Lifts today.   I have to say that this is one of my personal favorites I have done for them.  I am not sure why, except that it is true, and it truly reflects where I am at, especially in light of the publishing news I got this week. The funny thing is, I wrote this before I got this news, so I was especially amazed at how it ministered to me now versus when I wrote it.  Ok, I am babbling, but go read it-- even if you don't normally bother with going over there to read it, do it today!  And let me know what you think...

Note: I will fix my comments setting back and just take the risk of spam.  I have gotten a few complaints and don't want to alienate you loyal readers!! 

Baaaa!

All night I've had the image of a sheep banging her head against a wall. A really great essay! You captured how insignificant life can be if we aren't led by our Shepherd. Thanks for the inspiration. Kathy

My Book!



Using the personal stories of successful Christian writers, agents and editors, For the Write Reason helps writers of all levels learn from the experience of "insiders" in Christian publishing. The coordinating Bible study allows readers to delve into God's call on their own lives. Through this unique blend of encouraging words, advice and digging into God's word, writers are able to determine God's direction for their writing. Available for $17.99 from Proverbs 31 Ministries.

hazelnut creamer in my coffee in the morning
going out to dinner
a clean-smelling scented candle
the sound of my children's laughter
time alone to write
time alone to read
browsing at Barnes and Noble or a homeschool bookstore
time with my girlfriends
checking off my "to-do" list
reading the new edition of TOS with a cup of Orange Pekoe tea (extra sweet, with milk, please!)
