Many years before the first book of The Naomi Chronicles was
published people asked why I didn't write. In this post I share what few knew.
Most, like me, who have been told by many that they would be a
great author, and for those who, again like me, had a weekly newspaper column when a teenager, becoming an author would seem a great idea! However, I believed this was a dream that would never come true. For I couldn't spell or punctuate worth a bean which made doing what I now
love to do as difficult as writing that weekly column.
Had I thought that joining the women in our Congregations devotional
writers’ group to encourage them would lead me to do the one thing I feared, I would never have
done so. But God knew what He was doing and why. I say this because a
few months in I was writing things which a few of the ladies told me were to be
part of a larger work. I wanted to tell them they were wrong, but I couldn't. For while writing, I felt it wasn't me forming the sentences,
creating the scenes, describing the people, but Naomi.
When I asked God about this, I discovered that this was His plan
for me, to become a scribe for Him. To this day, He continues to show me what it means to turn my sorrow into joy by
trusting Him for the details. I was blessed to do that and further blessed to
learn that there are many levels of turning any portion one’s life over to the
lover of our souls.
Dear hearts, if God called or is equipping you, saying yes has blessings you'll never experience until you do, which oddly is exactly what Naomi learns in book one of her journey. While thinking of yours you might want to click: http://amzn.to/1tN7hEp
