Into the Fire

As an author, sometimes it "feels like" I've got nothing to recommend concerning my novels. In fact, I have few reviews for each of my books, although I can say a lot more readers have read and enjoyed them than chose to write reviews. Irrelevant. I will not denounce my writing abilities – I savor the love stories I write. They're not for everyone because some readers of Christian Fiction don't appreciate their reality at times. So I'm careful to recommend them to those who I think would be my audience. 

As a person, I can tell you if we become friends, I'm loyal to a fault and genuinely care about you and your life circumstances. I can also say if I'm into a subject, a "thing", I am passionate about whatever-it-is or it wouldn't be in my life. I can tell you I'm terribly undisciplined about many things and slightly rebellious to being told I "have to" do something – so probably best not phrase anything like that. 

Weird things. This one is new: I'm unofficially a "crow whisperer" as of recently. I have several noisy birds who come to eat every morning now. They make me happy. I said it was weird. 

The basics. I love and am devoted to the Lord Jesus Christ. My family is precious and loved deeply. My true friends are amazing people. I treasure my country, the United States of America, One Nation under God. All beyond the adequacy of words to describe. 

Nothing to recommend? You decide. 

Father, you're the One who matters. It's really all about you. Thank you for it all. Still desperate for you. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
