Quite a number of years ago, when I began writing, I was thinking, “Judy Bloom, move over!” But more frequently, what curled from my pen were words of praises to the Lord.

Most stories developed into Sunday School take-home papers. Poetry and devotions found their way into Christian magazines such as Alive Now and Devo’Zine, or into my book, I Will Not Be Silent, Praying the Psalms.

When God pops a few words or phrases into my head, I’d better hurry and write them down somewhere. I have learned to keep pen and paper around at all times. I often need to pull onto the side of the road to write the verses singing in my brain. Even in my “Quiet Times” I am sometimes pulled to jot a word or phrase. Later, they become another poem or devotion.

Expressing my thanks, praise, and concerns to my Lord is no longer just an option.

I encourage any aspiring writer to apply open heart and open mind to an open Bible. Once steeped in the WORD, then …. “Pick up thy pen and write.”

Are You Frosted?


 Are You Frosted?
 
 
Are you frosted about what someone did to you? Do you freeze them out whenever you see them?
 
OR 
 
Are you frosted, cold-hearted, afraid to trust God?
 
Either way, I bet you are feeling uncomfortable. What would it take to warm you again?
 
God's love is warming, comforting, freeing. Give Him a try. Find a church.
Join others in worship, sing the songs, pray the prayers, listen with your heart.
Then, at home, give Him a try. Open your Bible. 
Read about Jesus in the New Testament. Read the Psalms.
Notice that the Psalmist felt free to say anything and everything to God.
Those Psalms that seem to whine? They always end up remembering God's blessings in the past,
look forward to when God's favor will shine again.
 
In this coming season of winter, DON'T be "frosted" with God. Let Him warm you!

What Is It About Me?

This is to inform you that We have this month as payment credit instruction from the central bank of Benin Republic to credit your account contract funds from the Benin Rep reserve account with our bank diamond bank of Cotonou Benin. This is to notify you that your funds $1.8Millions US Dollars has been programmed for immediate release VIA ATM MASTER CARD.

They only ask for my name, address, age, occupation, next of kin, and verifiable ID. As soon as I give them this info, they assure me that within 4 hours they will make out an ATM Master Card in my name for $1.8 mil, accessible at $800 per day.

This makes the third such bonus I have received. Amazing.

And that Master Card is accessible daily for much more than $800!.
