Day 4- A little Spurgeon

I'm at a loss for words today.

Day 3 - Just As I Am

I've come a long way. I've known times of joy, times of heartache, times of want, times of need. Ive loved unconditionally, generated happiness....all for the greater good that God intended.  Still, there's no escaping broken pieces, the fragments that resurface time and time again....why? Because of wrong choices made...by others. I will continue to pick myself up and continue to re-build. The  spirit within me says I must.....for my daughters, for my grandchildren. While others made life-altering choices to harm and humiliate and their cold-hearted and sick actions re-visit innocent hearts of those I love...My story of Faith will encourage and inspire them.... there is no defeat in Christ Jesus.    

Just as I am I would be lost

but mercy and grace my freedom bought. 

And now to glory in Your Cross

O Lamb of God, I come, I come

I come broken to be mended

I come wounded to be healed

I come desperate to be rescued

I come empty to be filled

I come guilty to be pardoned

by the blood of Christ, the Lamb

And I'm welcomed with open arms

praise God, just as I am.

Day 2: Psalm 33:22

Day 2

I'm still pondering what I will write about. 
I'm guessing it will probably follow the theme of the blog....
I'll just ramble.

Day 1- 31 Blog Posts

Day 1

31 days of blog posts....coming up in October...

I haven't decided what I'll be writing about or  if I'll follow a theme. I am making a commitment to write or at least share a thought, a quote, a scripture for the next 31 days. 
Something positive to brighten your day. Hope you'll stop by!!

 Blessings on your day! 

 

God is doing something wonderful in the deep places of my heart.

Passion For Writing

 Early on in my writing adventure, I embraced the concept that if I have breath in me, then I have God given moments to share, to write about.  It can be something of little significance or something monumental; a joyful event or one that stirs up a bad memory or hurtful situation. Regardless of its nature, the underlying hope is it might dish up a mighty serving of encouragement or inspiration to another. 

I admit, in all my human-ness, there have been times when the little voices in my head tell me I’ve run out of things to write, stories to share.  My little brain becomes so muddled by the groans and murmurs of everyday life, writing is close to nil. 

God has used such times to discipline and grow me, both as a writer and a woman in dire need of a Savior.  A reminder to myself that reaching others comes through His call on my life and there is nothing I can do more of or less of that will thwart His purpose.   God reveals to me things I might otherwise be blind. I write to bring glory to God; to be a witness to HIS unfailing mercy and love.  

While pen has rested quietly on the table, prayers for direction, diligence, courage rise up. In His perfect timing and with move of the hand, words spill onto a page; not always intended for a wide audience, not always for publication or distribution.......simple words.......reaching into another heart…in     need of a Savior.

A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just begins
to live that day.

  Emily Dickinson
