Procrastinating Posting

With giving God the Glory being a priority, I yet do some weird things that become major boulders in my walk with Him.
I came across a web site that opens its doors to writers for the month of November, giving a challenge to write a novel of 50 000 words before midnight on the 30th! Well, there seems to be a lot of cricket going on, which keeps my other half occupied between DIY bouts, so although the month was already underway, and I was about to leave for a week-end conference, I took up the challenge.
The month was already a week under way before I got some notes together, and managed my synopsis, and now, on the 11th, having garnered more notes and scattered ideas, I have an unbalanced and shaky story underway. Without a LOT of editing it won’t be seeing the light of day in black and white for a long time, but the fun of new discipline is getting to me. It is not getting to others though, and my almost 16 000 words is not impressive to those who starve around me!
The idea is to teach Truth in Christian principles to young folk today who may be looking for help. Life is not getting easier for them, but we live in exciting times. I want them to know that God looks down from Heaven on the entire human race. He looks to see if there is even one with real understanding; one who seeks for God. Psalm53:2
Having enjoyed a great Baptist Women Conference, and heard so many ladies sharing on their concerns for their young families, I know I am not alone in the desire to see God’s Will being done. The knowledge that It is not His will that any should be lost, 2 Peter 3:9 keeps me hoping that many will hear His voice and turn to Him. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, says: I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. John 10:16
How great to know His grace and mercy works on, even in me!
