HELLO...!
FIRST OF ALL PLEASE LET ME SAY, I AM NOT YELLING. I OFTEN TYPE IN CAPS BECAUSE AT 79 YEARS OF AGE I FIND IT MUCH EASIER TO TYPE WITHOUT HAVING TO 'SHIFT'.
THAT SAID... I AM A CHRISTIAN AUTHOR, POET, WRITER AND ARTIST, WHO RESIDES IN ATLANTA, GEORIA.
AS A DIVORCED, RETIRED NURSE'S ASSISTANT AND A MOTHER OF 4, GRANDMOTHER OF 11 AND GREAT GRANDMOTHER OF 13+, I CAN TRUTHFULLY ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED A GREAT DEAL IN THIS WORLD.
SEEMS THAT I HAVE BEEN WRITING ALL MY LIFE. BUT, IT'S JUST IN THE LAST 25 YEARS OR SO, I HAVE COME TO REALIZE THAT THE WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT FROM GOD, WHICH STRENGTHENED ME TO 'PRESS ON', WERE NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT FOR THE WORLD. THUS, I SHARE HIS WORDS AS I TELL MY STORY THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF MY NOVELS, SHORT STORIES, BOOKS OF POETRY/PROSE AND ART.
I CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE AN UNIQUE CHRISTIAN WRITER IN THAT I DON'T 'PULL ANY PUNCHES'. BY THIS I MEAN, I AM VERY CANDID BECAUSE I KNOW NO ONE IS WITHOUT ERROR AND NO ONE IS EXACTLY WHERE THEY SHOULD BE IN JESUS CHRIST. A PERFECTED STATE OF BEING WHEREBY WE ARE WITHOUT ANY FAULTS WILL NOT BE ACHIEVED UNTIL WE'RE SAFE IN OUR SAVIOR'S ETERNAL ARMS. YET, ACCEPTING THE FACT THAT WE HAVE NOT(AS PAUL PUTS IT)ARRIVED, WE SHOULD, AT LEAST, TRY TO GET THERE. FOR, IT IS OUR TRYING THAT TOUCHES THE HEART OF GOD. CONSIDER; GOD CALLED DAVID, WHO WAS SO IMPERFECT, 'A MAN AFTER HIS OWN HEART' BECAUSE, THOUGH HE DID INDEED ERR, HE KNEW HOW TO CONFESS, REPENT AND TRY AGAIN AND AGAIN.
AND THIS IS MY FLAIR, MY WRITER'S TONE, IF YOU WILL; WE ALL ERR, WE ALL FALL DOWN, SOME MORE OFTEN THAN OTHERS BUT, WE CAN GET BACK UP. JESUS IS THERE TO HELP US, FOR WHEN WE REPENT HE FORGIVES AND RESTORES AS WE JOURNEY HOMEWARD. TO FALL AND MAKE A MISTAKE..IS HUMAN. IT IS NOT THE END, IN FACT, IT COULD VERY WELL BE THE BEGINNING. HOWEVER, TO FALL AND NOT CRY OUT TO GOD, BUT TO REJECT HIS OUT-STRETCHED HANDS THAT ARE FULL OF MERCY AND GRACE, REFUSING TO REACH-OUT TO HIM FOR THE STRENGTH TO STAND AND GO ON...THIS CAN BE THE END.
