Writings
A Collection of my writing.
Recently, my friend Linda suggested that I compile a group of my writings into a book and copyright it. Generally, I am very critical of my writing skill. It seems to me that when I write, I pick a topic, barrel into it, and then immediately get off-topic, and end up in some other direction. My writing doesn't always make sense to me, but I have been told it has been inspiring to those who have read it.
The reason my friend Linda suggested I compile my writings is because one of the articles I wrote, "God is my Refuge" was published in the online magazine 'Whosoever.' Over the years, I have written for church newsletters, and writing assignments for school. I have also posted some writing on the Christian Gay Writers Forum on Yahoo! - groups. (of which I am the moderator)
When I start running my fingers over the keyboard, I'm not exactly sure what's going to pop up on the screen. Such was the case when I posted a somewhat prophetic message on The Salvation Army's International Discussion Forum. (click here to read it) Being unfamilliar with all things Charismatic, I showed the post to some friends at church. They were very supportive, and said that it was very good, and God-inspired.
I've learned not to question what comes up on the screen when I type. It works better this way. My ability to write is a gift from God. A gift that He has plans for, and a gift which I willingly give back to Him. It is my hope and prayer that those who read the writings contained here will find something useful, something that will bring them closer to God, something that will remind them of God's unconditional love for them.
