I've got an idea...

It has been a long time since my last post.  A LOT has happened during that time.  I met and fell in love with a wonderful man.  We got married.  My daughter got married.  There was a death in the family and a variety of illnesses and injuries.  There was a trip to Europe.  And one to Williamsburg.  And one to Texas.  There was (and still is) the bliss of hanging out with the aforementioned wonderful man.

But now I have an idea.   I really want to make progress on the book, which I wrote about here.  So here's my plan.  I will periodically post a line or two from the book-in-progress to help keep me accountable and hopefully encourage or inspire anyone who might read this blog.  I think I'll also play with creative ideas about how to structure the book, maybe even incorporate some of my photography as I go along.  Please feel free to leave comments, suggestions, thoughts and inspirations.  I like to think of us sitting around a table with a cup of tea or coffee (or a glass of wine) sharing our hearts and being encouraged by our time together. 

 What an adventure this is going to be!

Here is today's taste of How Can I Serve the Lord:

Here's me, right now, as I start the journey of writing – searching, growing, reaching deep inside to let “me” out. The real me, shaped by a creative and personal God to shine His light at this time and in this place, just as I am. No, especially as I am. Because if I can, right now, I know that so will you.

And quite possibly many others. Freedom is contagious.

So, take a deep breath, and let's explore what it means to serve the Lord.
